I went yesterday to the dreaded Parking Authority in Toronto. Things started off well, I found a parking spot, was going to pay for the rental of the parking spot when a guy gave me his, as it had over an hour still to go, went inside, waited in line for only 5 minutes, got up to the clerk, showed him the ticket and my wife's permit. He immediately cancelled the ticket, saying that the enforcement officer probably couldn't see the expiry date of the permit, but, since it is a valid permit, he cancelled it. A good day afterall.

Thanks to everyone who gave me their advice!
