As mentioned, we see the importance of the trucking industry and the workers from my constituency. I can't think about all the challenges our truckers have faced with the Coutts border issues over the last number of weeks. I'm happy to hear that the highway has been reopened and is open to traffic now.
I've spoken to many truckers from my constituency, like Kulbir and Ashok, who were stuck at the border and couldn't get through with their trucks. They had full loads and couldn't get back to stock grocery store shelves to provide essential supplies to our communities. They couldn't get back home to their families after weeks of being away working and travelling to bring these goods and services to our cities.
Can you talk about the importance of crossings such as the Coutts border crossing to Canada and the North American supply chain, and the impact on Calgary and southern Alberta that we've seen with the illegal blockades?
