    When you see loads on load's board between Canada and the US, do they pay better than those inside the US, and if so, by how much roughly?

    Every fall I enjoy listening to some great Canadian classic rock bands while chilling out on my porch in a Canadian cold front after a long hot 100 plus degree summer. You guys rock!

    Its subjective Johny, theres things that are better in both countries depending on what's important to you. Health care and social welfare are better in Canada perhaps but there are many aspects of the US that are ahead of canada.

    Trudeau v Trump I dont know about, your call.

    The weather north of i 80 is bad anywhere in winter and I've never seen Canadian highways closed like Wyoming every year!

    Within canada rates arent generally very high and theres a lot of pressure on rates . It's a very big place but only 10% of the US population mostly in southern Ontario and southern BC. Most long haul drivers will do loads into and back out of US and those rates are sometimes good sometimes less so, but for general haulage usually better than within Canada.

    Is Canada still under British rule?
    An independent nation
    In 1982, it adopted its own constitution and became a completely independent country.

    HI Justin.

    Are y'all trying to say USofA is not a socialist country?
    What's that PT Barnam saying?

    At every border crossing guard shack hangs a picture of the queen. She is your mommy whether you like it or not.

    I dont want America to be socialist but theres an awful lot of bums out there who just want free stuff and for daddy govt to do all the hard work for them.
