For Ontario, the provincial application page states 2–8 characters without a graphic and 2–6 with a graphic. The corresponding serial example comes from the Ontario plate article; the two sources address different fields and do not count as two confirmations of the serial.

Questions

Which province has a full page?

Ontario. The serial ABCD-123, the white base with blue type, and the personalized character counts are sourced. Other provinces are named here only when I have a specific fact.

Does Canada have one national plate format?

No. Provinces and territories administer registration. Use the office links for the appropriate jurisdiction.
