Parking ticket lookup by city.
Choose the city that issued the ticket to see what to have ready and go to that City's own payment page.
Important, up front: only pay through the City's own page. Toronto and Vancouver have each warned about text messages that look like ticket reminders. Provincial offence tickets and bylaw tickets can use different systems.

What the cities ask for
Most ask for a ticket (or violation / infraction) number plus the licence plate. Winnipeg asks for the plate without spaces and the province or state. Calgary asks for the tag, infraction notice or ticket number and the referenced plate.
Not in the system yet
Vancouver notes a new ticket may not be entered yet and suggests trying the next day or contacting 3-1-1. Calgary says tags issued by another agency may not be available for online payment until transferred to Calgary Parking.
Paying ends a dispute
Toronto says that once a full or partial payment is made the matter is no longer eligible to dispute. Read the dispute rules on the ticket before paying.

Guide only — not an official lookup
Rules and fees change; the ticket and the City site govern. This page does not query any government or municipal system and is not affiliated with one; nothing you type is transmitted anywhere. Always confirm on the official service linked above.
