I’m going to guess that the equipment was still being used to produce various governmental plates (diplomats, parliament, emergency vehicles, etc.)
The question of diplomatic plates is a good one. I haven't seen anything about a new pattern and can only assume they will follow the white-on-red format. Similarly, I haven't seen anything about other series' such as dealer plates, handicap plate, etc(it's probably out there - I haven't looked).
I'm not aware of specific plates for parliamentarians - Ontario plates issued to the federal government usually just use a restricted letter series. 'Canada' plates are only issued to DND vehicles.
