Everone is entitled to their opinions, but some of them appear to be based on something besides facts.Take a look at the drivershortage website. It`s one word and then dot ca. Trimac`s view of things are dead on and they do not try and pass the industries problems off on to any segment of society. Trucking is what it is.

I'm getting the feeling that while foreign whites were coming into Canada to work as drivers there wasn't too much of a problem, now that there are more people of colour entering it's becoming a problem for some.

I don't care if you are white or brown. If the government allows the carriers to pay you less for the same job, that is wrong.Tam_Tam Thanks this. -

Don´t forget people that you are no natives either. Third or 4th generation maximum in Canada. Your country is built with and by immigrants (your parents and grandparents). The locals smoked pot in tipis while you built your industry. Btw I don`t take sides as I see the problem from both angles. Same processes within EU. It is a neverending topic until there is unequal distribution of wealth in the world. And this is NEVERENDING.
I see people from my country that work hard and want to live well who emigrate to richer countries. Meanwhile our salaries/rates are drawn down by cheaper eastern european countries such as PL,RO,BG etc. drivers/companys. I don`t have a clue how to fix the problem. But protectionism has been tried before. Didn`t work out (USSR). -
The large number of truck drivers being brought into Canada under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program is unprecedented. I doubt that most truck drivers are even aware of the recent flood of Temporary Foreign Workers. I'm sure it has taken most drivers by surprise. Prior to the current tidal wave of Temporary Foreign Workers, Canadian truck drivers were Canadian citizens of various colours. The new Temporary Foreign truck drivers are also various colours. There is no net visible difference in the profile of truck drivers in Canada under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program.Last edited: Apr 11, 2013

Truck drivers in the UK and western Europe are fleeing to Canada to avoid the influx of poorly-paid truck drivers from eastern Europe and the former Soviet Republics. Truck drivers in Canada are fleeing the influx of truck drivers from the UK and Western Europe. The truck drivers in Canada have no place left to go in a country with a very high cost of living. It is helpless truck drivers around the world who are paying the price of a labour force that is allowed to freely move across international boundaries willy-nilly.Last edited: Apr 11, 2013
