Pioneer needs drivers.

SNI also has a Canadian Division. They have an operating centre out of Guelph, Ontario.

 

Cabotage is what I was thinking of. Just typed the wrong word. And it appears to be an immigration thing on the Canadian side. I have yet to find anything on the cabotage laws in Canada stating that a US driver cannot do one trip within Canada before returning back to the US. Only immigration laws seem to say it.

 

Have done a few P2P loads in US in the past. For rep companies to boot. Actually once had to go back down to US from Canada to grab a US drivers load (he couldn't cross the border) but I was a little short on hours. But as you know....freights gotta move eh?

 

Customs rules determine what the truck may do. Immigration rules determine what the driver may do. This is exactly same in both Canada and the U.S.

 

Many people keep saying this, yet no one can provide me with some links so that I can read up on it. That's all I've been asking for, are links so that I can read up on it and know it first hand.

An American or Mexican truck driver may load goods in the United States or Mexico, then deliver partial loads at several locations in Canada. An American or Mexican driver may also pick-up goods in Canada at one or more locations and take them to the United States or Mexico. The American or Mexican driver may combine any or all of these pick-ups and deliveries in one trip as long as the goods picked up in Canada have a final destination in the United States or Mexico and are not delivered to another Canadian location. Cabotage, which is pick-up and delivery of the same goods between one location in Canada and another, is not allowed.

"While the word "cabotage" does not appear in any of the various U.S. and Canadian regulations and tariffs, it is, however, duly addressed."

And here is a link from Human Resources and Skills Development Canada

"A Canadian carrier cannot legally carry domestic U.S. freight which results in their inability to pick up a load from the southern U.S. back to a U.S. city on the way back to Canada. The Canadian carrier can only transport international freight back to Canada. In contrast, a U.S. carrier returning home to the southern U.S. from Canada cannot carry freight within Canada but usually only has to go a short distance to a U.S. city across the border to pick up freight for the rest of its trip to anywhere in the U.S"
