    1. @greenbay It takes a great deal of skill driving shift with more then 12 gears and having to drive in really bad conditions with thousands of lb on the back and to back those trucks into bays and sometimes they help unload trailers.. Font forget some drivers have mechanical experience in case they need to fix their vehicle

    2. @greenbay Class A licensing and a airbrake endorsement requires “far” more technical and administrative skills then you might imagine not to mention the immediate skill needed to navigate a heavilly loaded vehicle in todays urban areas.

    3. @G.A It’s way more difficult than driving a car but more than that commercial licensing is way more “onerous” than driving a car.

    4. Truckers are considered as Professional Drivers, sadly though, there needs to be more training. My husband works on that part of the industry.

    1. Ontario will be next because Ford faces a election in five short months and this should send a message to him about the mood of the voters.

  1. Mike Millian speaks on behalf of all truckers.. the same way Justin Trudeau speaks on behalf of all Canadians. Smh

  2. Honestly it’s a bit unfair to demand the protesters to be respectful when the opposite side has not shown much respect.

    1. @Mama I don’t think he’s calling for anything unpeaceful or being nasty he is simply pointing out a unfairness.

    1. Trudeau is untruthful, nasty and divisive but the word ‘hate” speech is used way too much in this era of lefty progressives.

  3. Think you have power…used it to change government…a warning to those who follow…without truckers…not just food…nothing…thank you….

  4. I love that everyone here is careful to keep it clean. I don’t like this guy. That’s all I’ll say.

  5. Adding quotes around the word ‘peaceful’ in your title is a disgrace. It’s peaceful, like it or not..
