The current series is using the A12 BCD format. Our observation is that the first letter and two numbers progress before the three letter suffix, giving this type of progression: A01 AAA - A99 AAA, then B01 AAA through B99 AAA, etc.
Louis Lamy advises in the new passenger series some prefix letters have been omitted: A-C-F-L-R-T-V.
Type Plate Notes Reporter
Passenger G99 BCE From Andru Tomoiu and Manny Jacob: Passenger plate series progression since 1995:
A-H, J-N, Q, Y, R, Veteran P, SAA-SSZ, PDA-PDH, remainder of S, remainder of P, T, V, W, X, Y, Z. Early P series (PAA-PCZ) set aside for Veteran plates. Jean-François Lapointe reports 001 PDA as the lowest regular P series seen. The P series began to be issued before the S series was exhausted, and the T series followed P, but S series plates were still being issued. Highest P and S series issued around same time in late 2006-early 2007, then T, V, W, X, Y, and Z thereafter.
Jean-François Lachance spotted 002 AAA on 2009-01-04. In the original run of the AAA 001 and up series, Louis P. Lamy reports a high of ZZZ 985. According to Louis, AAA 001 was issued to a woman in Hull. The lowest Louis has seen is AAA 137.

Specialty Plates
Veteran 135 PAG First modern Québec graphic plate, introduced in early 2006 has red and black poppy between the digits and letters of the otherwise-regular base. 008 PAA reported as the low for this issue by Jean-François Lachance on 2006-11-22. It now appears that PAA-PCZ was alloted for Veteran plates, because PDA-PZZ letter range was used for regular passenger plates confirmed issued from June 2006 to January 2007. François-Pierre Doyon
