Loon design wins for next Manitoba specialty licence plate, province says
Manitoba has announced that a loon design will grace the province's next specialty licence plate, in recognition of its provincial parks. The design was chosen following a public survey which garnered 62,605 responses. The new plate, which will be available in both English and French, will pay homage to the natural beauty of the region.
The government states that a portion of every plate sale will go towards a fund for park enhancements. Five design options were presented to the public, including a loon on a lake, a campsite at night, a person canoeing, a map replica, and a black plate symbolizing a nighttime park. The Nature Conservancy of Canada initiated the idea for the specialty plate. The new design is set to be available next year.
