That's what I get from reading the story - it seems like an exception could be made for CMP's/antique vehicles - but with Quebec bureaucracy, who knows?

Yes, postal vans are RHD - and I know a letter carrier who had an accident in one because of a blind spot for oncoming traffic from the left when he pulled out from an angled side street. Oh well.

I recently met a guy here in Manitoba who is driving a RHD Toyotal Hilux SUV he got from Japan, doesn't even have a warning placard on the back; I haven't heard of the Dippers planning a crackdown here, but it is the sort of thing they would do.
