I am looking into buying a RHD car that is located in B.C. I live in Toronto so I am unfamiliar with the process of buying a used car in B.C.

What I would like to know, if I buy a car from a private party in B.C. , what is the process of getting it plated and insured if I wanted to drive from B.C. to Toronto? Does B.C. issue temporary license/transit plates? The other issue is that insurance for RHD cars is really difficult in Ontario and the only place that will do it requires an aproasial on on it. Can anyone recommend anything?
With the pandemic raging on, I could always leave it at a friend's place in Richmond but I would prefer to bring it here and do a road trip out of it(and bring my own food/things I need and just cannonball it back).
