The biggest challenge for me right now, because I see the direct effect, has been the effect of the carbon tax. The bigger challenge for me is the fact that I see people who are not listening to what the industry is saying about the cause and effects of all this.
Like I said, I'm not an economics professor, but I do know the reality. I look at what I do. I look at the people I do work for, and they dictate to me what my price will be, what I can charge, and what they're going to pay me. I have a choice to say no or to take that work, but as an individual and as a group of great employees who work very hard.... The middle class is disappearing in going the direction we're going in. That's what's more frightening than anything, because all the other things.... On the cost of parts, a turbo at one time was $1,800, two years ago, and now it's $6,800. Those in the trucking industry would understand how important a turbo is to a truck.
