Avoiding car insurance costs in ontario

If I register the car with insurance and get the license plates and sticker, print off the pink slip and put it in my car, and finally switch my insurance to fire and theft and tell my insurance company I won’t be driving… Lets say the cops run my plate randomly. Will it come back as “insured” or will the system have updated to read my license as “only insured for fire and theft”? Scenario 2: say I get pulled over for something trivial and the cop asked for license and insurance and I give them the original pink slip that has since been cancelled, is there any way for the cop to confirm my insurance has been cancelled and the pink slip is no longer valid? Please don’t comment unless you are answering my questions! TIA

If you drive your car with only fire/theft, you are no insured, and you don't have valid insurance to be on the road. If you need to move the car, add that back in temporarily. If you're trying to cheat, you will lose. Lots of sob stories on RFD of people who thought they could get away with driving on fire/theft coverage.
If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

Scariest post I have ever read on RFD, has to be someone trolling no one would be obtuse enough to put this on an open board. Poster has 2 solitary posts, nuff said.

Are you seriously asking for advice on how to break the law?
