    MV illegal on highway in Canada (Quebec)

    It's smelling like roses in here. There are more details to come but essentially the restrictions have been lifted and Transportation Quebec is turning the clock back a year. Engineers, MV collectors and government will get it together and continue to find a simpler way to bring the MV hobby to...

    MV illegal on highway in Canada (Quebec)

    We're going to visit Quebec regardless of the minister's decision so I'll follow-up on the events page. We should know more after the weekend with another deadline passing Jan. 30 . Let's hope avmq.org has a favourable announcement but either way it's inspired a lot of investigation, counter...

    It's not a Christmas miracle but the sleigh is built. The objective to release the restrictions on MV owners in Quebec has not been met. Here's a link to the English version of a website a newly formed association has assembled. http://avmq.org/?page_id=554&lang=en a snippet """""""In...

    MV illegal on highway in Canada (Quebec)

    I like the smell of roses and it doesn't smell like roses. It smells better than blue cheese so on a scale of one to ten with cheese being ten and one being roses, it smells like campfire. Calming, warm and soothing but it's going to continue to need attention. It was the background noise...

    MV illegal on highway in Canada (Quebec)

    After talking to Quebec today I'm convinced this will get resolved to current MV owners satisfaction but future MV owners will see changes. Safety sense will prevail and we'll all have an opportunity to guide our MV future, it just continues to take time. November 11th is going to be very...

    Do you fellas and ladies have any favorite local media contacts? Many individuals making calls to local media across the States and having them call the number below to find out what the latest 'rules' are for tourists in Quebec may net some answers. Quebec is still not sure. A good journalist...

    AM General in the twi-light zone I pasted the content of an AM General public statement reply below. Has anyone seen this before? Thank you for reaching out to AM General with your inquiry. Please see the attached statement from our Legal Department regarding the use of Humvees for...

    Did you get a new letter yet? This issue forced me to learn just enough French to make the girls giggle. "Hello, the 'c' plate must go in the toilet." https://www.thefrenchexperiment.com/ bonjour, la plaque 'c' doit aller dans les toilettes. Once again, what a cool reception from the...

    Here's a little snippet below of a letter of support to the transportation minister of Quebec. That poor lad has tough decisions to make all day long. Offering him a ton of support to build confidence on reinstating Historical Military Vehicles could make his day easier. I asked for his position...

    MV illegal on highway in Canada (Quebec)

    You may need to represent many people that couldn't be there, but you won't be alone. Responses like the reply from tourism are starting to cut into my travel plans. They didn't leave a toll free number but if it's a local number in Quebec, maybe the folks nearby can check to see if their...

    MV illegal on highway in Canada (Quebec)

    I haven't heard back from Tourism Quebec and time is clicking by. If anyone has future plan to travel to Quebec in a Historical Vehicle that might have been used by the military at one time, Quebec Transport would still like to see it. They're not sure why they want to see it but they gave...

    Reasonable, logical, responsible The radar is on folks. Looks like group A is meeting with the Quebec Transportation Minister. The MV restriction issue needs to be resolved quickly and withdrawn without delay. With our thoughts on the people facing severe weather on the East coast and the...

    Do you fellas have a "travel bureau", AAA or travel agency that would recommend a travel route through Canada from West to East? They are very helpful with giving away a free map and drawing a line on it to guide you to your destination. They give away brochures of all the places to see...

    This is harder than it should be. They put a bunch of real sweet ladies on as front-line operators and their French accents are so distracting its hard to focus. They start off in French but they all speak English. I called the Quebec Tourism Ministers office to find out which vehicles I...

    The other specialty car clubs out East need to get a sniff of this and sign in. I see you're already using that hot blood to fill the face book,.... very nice. Would that pretty artist lady you know have any ideas for HMV promotional posters? Many of the club contacts I've called don't know...

    Defining vehicle restrictions You nailed a part of the problem. Good legislators reduce public backlash by doing their homework. No 'legal' definitions or lists are available. Definitions usually come at the top of the list. When i suggested we bring the 1966 bus to Quebec they asked if it...

    Good Morning and Bonjour fellow MV Guardians. The Quebec teams have built the first canoe and made it easy to hop in and paddle. There is a petition available here...

    I was correct for a change. The transportation minister's representative asked me to send pictures and measurements.......you read what I typed....pics and dimensions of any of the vehicles I'd like to visit Quebec with. Emails weren't getting returned and the letters likely have not arrived so...

    Awareness Campaign I sense that it's real important we maintain our professionalism and politely call and ask him if we are welcome in our MV's. https://coalitionavenirquebec.org/fr/activites/venez-deguster-de-bons-hot-dogs-au-bbq-annuel-de-francois-bonnardel-1251/ TRANSLATION...
