Robin makes some very valid points which should be heeded.

It should also me mentioned that a carrier on smooth pavement is very easily put out of control - not the best thing in close proximity to a parade. The details are a little foggy but I think what became the last use of a carrier on public pavement by the active military ended up with said carrier pinwheeling well into someone's living room on Avenue Rd. In Toronto.

While the tracks are unlikely to harm the pavement, they will, in most cases, leave white marks that are likely to draw the attention of some whiners.

I think the only legitimate registration in Ontario would be as an ATV like many of the Iltis vehicles came with. A viable precedent has been set there. This could allow an insurance policy that would not vaporize as soon as you were in trouble & the Insurance people saw a way out in that you misrepresented the vehicle. There are limitations on the use of an ATV on the road though.

Another point to consider is that once it has an Ontario title the 13% HST will apply when you register it and again if you sell it.

( My only defense here is that my wet blanket is green!)
