    I read the article in the Truck News, it's supposed to be near the new fuel stop in Comber.

    That's where it is going. It will be close to the Fuel/Truck stop and Tim Hortons, exit 48 on Hwy401.

    My husband drives for Bison on their LCV division...and puts in no longer of a day than is legal. He's been at Bison for 13 years now and wouldn't go anywhere else! They've been a great company.

    I had a freind who use to work for Bison and got out of trucking after retiring, he said they are a very safe company to work for said they never ask him to run over hours. I was going to work for them before I bought my truck and then just stayed in Saskatchewan hauling reefers for my brother when things picked up.

    I am a 401 runner and I see all the LCVs from different companies, but they are not allowed when there's snow on the ground and in the winter months right? So what's next, ship and deliver everything in summer nights and fire everybody in the winter or send them up the ice roads?
