Not official obviously and a bit large for the standard North American plate. Maybe one could make one for oneself

'Never expected to have so many people on this website thinking about my penis'
A Canadian politician is receiving worldwide attention after he said that "unnecessary trucks" are complicit in the "glorification of violence and domination."
POLL: Should the Right embrace Conservatism or Populism to win future elections? He also questioned the masculinity of male truck owners, but was clearly taken aback when social media users came to question his own masculinity following the lengthy rant.
What are the details? Mathew Bond, a North Vancouver, Canada, council member shared a photo of a large pickup truck on social media, which he captioned, "The glorification of violence and domination. #unnecessarytrucks #petromasculinity."
Bond explained that the truck — a large white pickup with a large plate with a tongue-in-cheek joke reading "Global Warmer" — was dismissive in its treatment of global warming.

"A lot of the replies to this tweet (which Twitter has graciously ran through the quality filter) are reinforcing the point I made," he shot back. "Wow, never expected to have so many people on this website thinking about my penis (especially dudes). Weird, but thanks? Trucks are necessary in many rural areas. Designing or modifying them to be more dangerous to others than they already are is unnecessary."

Weird, but thanks? — Mathew Bond (@Mathew Bond)1610910052.0 Trucks are necessary is many rural areas. Designing or modifying them to be more dangerous to others than they already are is unnecessary. — Mathew Bond (@Mathew Bond)1610910133.0 Bond insisted that the trucks — and their owners — are doing nothing more than "glorifying global warming," a "harmful and disgusting" move.
"The fact is that trucks (all vehicles in fact) are being designed larger and more powerful than they have in the past," he explained. "Pick your favourite light or mid duty model and compare today's version to that of your parents (or grandparents if you're young). The design, specifically the size and heights of the front of the truck, is more dangerous and can cause more harm to others on the road than it used to. Life it up 6" inches [sic] plus, put a big bull bar on the front, and the affect [sic] is amplified."

"From the replies twitter has shown me, it seems a lot of people haven't thought about this," he mused. "Or they have thought about it and don't care about the impact on other people using the road. Or they've thought about it and decided that having a bigger, more powerful truck with modifications that are going to be more harmful to others in a crash is somehow more 'manly.'"

"The mental leap from 'the message on the truck is harmful, glorifying global warming is violent and the size/mods on this truck make it more dangerous for others on the road' to 'Mathew is a d***less, ball-less, spineless, soy latte drinking, city living p***y who's never done a day of 'real' work in his life, sits down to pee, hates all trucks, the hard working people that drive them and wants to control our lives' actually illustrates the toxicity I was mentioning in the hashtags better than anything I could have done myself," he railed.

Canada has 13 space license plates?
Glad to report ALL Canadians aren’t like that doofus. Just about half, judging from Hubs’ cousins.
Anyway ... a lot of gals drive trucks, too. Because snow, farm chores, bad roads, etc. Everybody drives trucks.
That said, where can I get me one of them “Global Warmer” plates?
I’m sure Ford and Chevy would agree with that. /s
C U C K !

The marijuana is stronger, too. I bet he’s okay with that, though.
Two thumbs up.

Poor guy. It must be humiliating to be known as One Fist Freddie.
I prefer Jeep products. There may not be quite as much air pollution, but the enhanced off-road capabilities let me tear up more of the environment.
i tuned out at “as a Canadian”
Lol
Yeah, and electric cars represent homosexuals. So, there.
That guy drives a Prius, if he even drives at all.
