Chilliwack
The Township of Chilliwack was incorporated in 1873, and in 1881 a large subdivision called Centreville was developed nearby. In 1887 the name Centreville was replaced by a more popular name, Chilliwack, and the area was incorporated in 1908 as a separate municipality, the City of Chilliwack. The City and the Township co-existed for 72 years before merging in 1980 to form the City of Chilliwack.

Tahsis
The Village of Tahsis, situated on the west coast of Vancouver Island had originally started as a floating logging camp in the 1940s with the only access being by boat. This later evolved into a permanent on-shore camp, which began to take on the semblance of a village in the 1950s. The road from Tahsis to Gold River was only opened to the public in 1972. Until this time, the community was effectively a company town and all roads were private, so vehicles technically did not need to be registered with the province. Nevertheless, the Tahsis Company did keep track of vehicles operating on its road by issuing its own form of licence plate:
There is also a known variation of this plate which is dated, and was renewed the following year through the use of a small brass tab (see below):
