OOIDA protests speed-limiter plan

Quebec will begin requiring speed limiters set to 65 mph for heavy trucks starting Jan. 1, a move denounced by the Owner-Operator Independent Driver Association.

OOIDA says it is ready to file a Notice of Intent to Submit a Claim to Arbitration for breach of Canadas obligations under the North American Free Trade Agreement if it becomes effective.

OOIDA accused Julie Boulet, Quebecs transportation minister, of reneging on her word. On Dec. 13 Boulet had said Quebec would not implement the mandate until Transport Canada completed studies on effectiveness of speed limiters and all other provinces had agreed to similar mandates.

Does OOIDA's PAC contribute to Canadian politicians ? I don't think so . Does the Quebec Trucking Assoc. , who supports speed limiters make political contributions ? Most certainly .
