Anyone know if I'll run into any legal issues running the relocation bracket here in Ontario?

The plate requirements are pretty basic. The front plate must be on the very front of the vehicle (not in the windshield) but that is all the law says. There is nothing that says it must be centered. The other parts of the law say it must be completely visible. Dirt, tinted covers and even frames that block part of the plate all can get you $100 ticket. Now, I have run covers on my plates for 40 years and never had a cop say a word about them even when I was pulled over for something else so I am not too worried about that. A buddy of mine did get a ticket for a dirty plate that was not legible but he can be a d1ck so probably just pissed the cop off.
