I hear those fresnel lens license plate covers work pretty well to avoid those cameras.

So glad to hear your government up north cares about your safety as much as ours does here in the states.

yup, that is why they move red light cameras to a higher revenue corner if the rate of tickets go down. You'd think if there were fewer tickets the camera was doing it's job to make the corner safer and they'd leave the camera there.

F'nn moron pedestrians...a rant..
This area of Toronto, Scarborough, has long stretches of roads without pedestrian crossings. Just recently a 10 mile length of a 6 lane major traffic artery has it's speed reduced from 60 km/hr to 50 km/hr(30MPH). Toronto has turned into a bag of sh*t for motorists.
They did that with the Regina bypass, of course speed cameras were included with a ton of tickets handed out. They had to make back some of the money. It was bloody painful to drive. We avoided going to Regina because of it, commuting it daily must have sucked.

I'm surprised the nanny state hasn't advanced to the point in monitoring citizens down to the point when you take a pi$$.

I know it sucks to not be able to determine your own speed limit or do donut burnouts in the cul-de-sac at 2 a.m. Remember, you choose how you drive. So essentially you ultimately get to choose to pay "the man" or not. I'd rather let the other guys pay. But I'll just leave this here:

1. Figure out where the cameras are. Maybe not exact locations, but what areas are monitored by them.
2. Leave earlier, enjoy the ride. Take a route that has least amount of cameras if possible when the urge to punch it kicks in.
3. If your car is equipped with cruise control, use it where it makes sense.
4. Don't bust the speed limit (not too much anyway. Usually <5 mph over, YMMV)
5. Stop at red lights and don't run them. Don't bother with trying to camouflage your license plate. You'll likely lose in court. If you drive a G-body, it won't take long for them to find you if they want anyway.
6. Enjoy the extra money in your wallet and 0 deduction in points.
7. If you decide to not follow free advice laid out in steps 1-6, don't whine when you get your ticket.
