Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to both of the ministers for appearing this morning.
I'll turn first to you, Minister MacKinnon. In your testimony.... Notwithstanding the fact that I agree with you that our grocery shelves are full of goods because of our truckers, I'm also going to equally say that probably it's because Canadians can't afford food, but that's just a point of interest.
Minister, on October 7, 2025, this committee heard compelling testimony from witnesses who described the Driver Inc. model as “the crisis that is destroying [the trucking] industry, causing carnage on our highways and robbing our social network of billions of dollars each year.”
Minister, honestly, give yes-or-no answers, please.
In your capacity as Minister of Transport, have you met with the Ontario Minister of Transportation about this crisis?
