It is NOT illegal to mount your plate vertically in Ontario Canada. I got this right from the OPP traffic manager by contacting them through their web site:
Section 13 of the Highway Traffic Act of Ontario relates to vehicle license plates. Subsection 2 specifically states, in part, "...and shall be affixed so that the entire number plate, including the numbers, is plainly visible at all times..." Common sense would dictate you do not alter the license plate mount, but to answer your question, there is nothing in the Highway Traffic Act which states you cannot mount your license plate on the back of your motorcycle vertically. The Act only states the plate must be clearly visible at all times.

As of October 1, 2008, vertical mounted license plates are illegal. The fine for this is $1,000.

The idea here is that once you are pulled for this "ridiculous" violation, officers have probable cause to examine for alcohol or other potential violations. Please be aware and take this seriously.
