I agree. I hate branding on government issued items. What next, a Stampeders ID template?

looks like they are going to be in numerical order, tempted to roll the dice and get a couple of them and hopefully get a cool number like 13 or 23. $$$

It's a shame you can't get them in Vanity Plate format.

Coming soon according to this quote

While the program will only feature the regular sequential numbers, Malkinson said the province will look to allow for custom plates next year, adding the system used to create plates is undergoing changes.

So this all but confirms Flames will not drop the silly black flaming C. More years of ugly black C and shoulder flags. Thanks Ken King, you sure do a lot of reading. In fact, the Flames plate is ugly IMO. Should have gone at least retro colours or perhaps a white plate and red C at the very least.

It's great they are doing it for charity, for sure. I guess I am just a little bummed because I've always wanted them to put out these plates, I just wish they didn't use the black C. I guess I'll have to pass, oh well.

I agree! I’m going to order mine today and I’ll change when they personalize.

I think the most embarrassing part of the Oilers plate is that they trademarked "Let's Go Oilers".

I'm not sure how our red plate will look on a dark blue car either. Probably the only thing that might stop me from upgrading.

A lot of people here make disparaging remarks about the Flames ownership but is there anyone more greedy than the little man the owns the Oilers?

Surprisingly good. I've got the typical GTI red accents on a dark blue, it matches quite well. Can't decide if I want this plate on there, or on the red truck.

I wonder how long before the censors catch on to people using the flaming C as the first letter.


edit: looks like they can't be personalized, guess they thought of everything.
