'By moving to reflective licence plates, expiry stickers become redundant and outdated.' 'Alberta's government has been looking for ways to improve and modernize the delivery of registry services,' Nate Glubish, minister of Service Alberta, said in the release. The province is moving to the high-definition reflective plates once the stock of painted licence plates runs out sometime in fall 2021, a news release said Monday. Albertans will no longer require expiry stickers on their licence plates starting next month as the province moves toward the adoption of reflective plates.
