Yeah, I'm pretty positive you don't have to sell or trade-in the other vehicle, at least not in Alberta.
This is what AMA says:
Quote:
Can I use my licence plate on another car in Alberta?
As long as the other vehicle is registered in your name, you may apply to use your licence plate on another vehicle. If you purchased a vehicle, your existing licence plate may be displayed on the new vehicle for up to 14 days from the date on the bill of sale. After that, you will have to transfer the licence plate and registration to the new vehicle or apply for a new licence plate and registration.

Sounds like driving a vehicle with a plate registered to another vehicle you own, is, in fact, legal.
Maybe Derek Sutton is not in Alberta? I think BC has stricter rules.
