I thank you for that, but, as we've noticed, there are, especially on Highway 11/17.... They are actually two roads that go to Highway 1, which runs the truck drivers from coast to coast. I think we need to work a lot more closely with our provincial partners, especially when it comes to the insurance factors.
Legitimate carriers are facing rising insurance costs, partly due to high-risk drivers insured through facility insurance, often linked to Driver Inc.-style operations.
How are responsible operators being impacted by the system, especially when accidents occur on federally significant routes like Highway 11/17? What federal measures could help ensure that insurance schemes don't unfairly penalize responsible carriers due to the actions of unqualified or unvetted drivers?
