Ted Morton, candidate for leadership of Alberta's PC Party, unveiled a new conservation license plate proposal to supporters and members of the media this morning at the Bow Habitat Station. The plate is a collaboration with internationally renowned wildlife artist Robert Bateman.
The design was unveiled with Calgary-Lougheed MLA Dave Rodney and a video address from Bateman. Proceeds from sales of the vanity plate will go in part to Bateman's Get to Know program for children, as well as an Albertan conservation group of the plate holder's choice.
"We decided that the big horn sheep would be the best subject for the plate because it's a big powerful animal and it gives me the opportunity to show the great mountain landscape of the rockies of Alberta," explained Bateman in the video address.
The plate also features Alberta's provincial motto, Strong and Free. "The license plate program is not only a beautiful way to advertise and promote our province but it will provide additional funds for educating young Albertans on our natural inheritance," said Morton.
