I'd rather just donate the $150 directly.

Ehh, me too if it means I have to give up my 6 character code. I don't want 7.

Red and white? I think the colours are orange and white, and it is no coincidence that those are also the colours of the PC Party, and the Oilers.

Ted Morton aside, I think this is a good starting point/template (minus Robert Bateman, as unique as that would be) for the time when the release all new plates, after Stelmach yanked it away.

The Alberta at the top is the same as currently used. "Strong and Free" is pretty good, and of course the English translation of "Fortis et Liber" on the provincial Coat of Arms.

I'm just psyched at what this holds for the future. I'm a plate collector and I'm tired of the 30 year old one we have currently.

I may stand alone on this, but I'd love to see plates that can identify city. Whether that be with fancy logos/city coat of arms, or just doing things with the city abbreviation (e.g. RD/CGY/EDM/LET/MH) almost european style, like
12RD456 or 34CGY56. Would be pretty cool.

Most of you guys hate all new Flames stuff, especially any new jersey designs. Why would you get a Flames license plate?

This sounds like it should be in one of the Flames jersey threads.
