they couldn't pass the test here in Manitoba, so they went to Ontario and magically passed, then came back to Manitoba. MPI is calling them in to retake the tests here.

Where will they go for easy class 1 licenses now that ontario got tougher .. for years they failed in bc then magically ontario passed them the next week .. about time they start protecting the public

I hope it's not racism sounds like it is not. I have known many Sikh individuals they were great people. They told of facing alot of discrimination due to people mistakenly thinkng they were Muslim.

How much you want to bet the first part about failing the first time gets omitted once cbc or similar gets a hold of this one... oh, with government check book at the ready, of course.
It is good to see an authority finally calling a spade a spade.upnorthwpg, AModelCat and magoo68 Thank this. -
It seems certain driving schools in Ontario were targeted because of their lax standards.
-
Anyone else notice that they are now getting inspections more often at ontario scales .. in many cases you see the truck or trailer still there a few days later

Ha, ha, that is a bit rich for those guys to be claiming religious discrimination when the discrimination is actually based on state of origin (Punjab). Recent immigrants from Punjab are well-known to frequent fake Punjabi driving schools in Ontario:
Big-truck ‘licensing mills’ put public at risk | Toronto Star
Phony Punjabi truck driving schools in BC and Alberta produced a plague of dangerous drivers that still persist although many of the schools were shut down by Provincial authorities.
Good for the Manitoba Public Insurer! Lets get some of these terrible drivers off the road. Punjabi "truck drivers" are way over-represented at crash scenes. Recent immigrants from Punjab make up .001% of the Canadian population but somehow manage to cause 95% of the truck crashes in Canada.BigHossVolvo and bigguns Thank this. -
The schools are not the only ones. Who does the road test, the DMV?
