About this plate
THE PERIOD IS EARNED TWICE OVER, WHICH IS RARE IN THIS GROUP. The consolidation prints "[Paragraph 10(g) amended by O.I.C. 1990/112]" immediately after the three-letters-then-one-or-two-digits sentence, and the independent per-territory encyclopedia format table reports the ABC12 arrangement as running "1990-present". NOTE ALSO the class overlap the regulation itself creates: 10(g) covers "private vehicles OR vehicles owned or leased and operated by Government of Yukon", so a Yukon government fleet vehicle may lawfully wear either a private plate (10(g)) or a "Y" government plate (10(i)).
