Veterans and current members of the Canadian Forces may be allowed to park for free downtown on Remembrance Day if Ottawa Council backs a motion unanimously endorsed Wednesday by the transportation committee.

Vehicles with special licence plates issued to veterans by any provincial or territorial transportation ministry would be allowed to park for free at paid parking spaces on city streets in the vicinity of the National War Memorial and the City Hall parking garage on Nov. 11.

All other posted regulations and time limits for on-street parking will apply.

The city “wishes to send a strong message that the citizens of Ottawa are grateful for the individual sacrifices that veterans have made and remind them that ‘we will not forget,'” reads the motion, which was introduced by Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Michael Qaqish.

Ontario’s ‘poppy’-themed plates are reserved for veterans and current members of the Canadian Armed Forces.
