It's not just trucking...we got degree mills spew out fake students. Ruining Canada's reputation in education, and the 'students' working as Uber drivers driving down wages.

TFW staffing Tim Hortons, making it hard for people to start competing cafes. Same with other franchises.

Also, all commercial trucks should be limited in speed to 80kph on the highway, and 30kph in the city, using geo-fencing. All tucks should have front/back/side cameras always on and linked to a blackbox in case of an accident.

Canada should have a good high-speed train network.

We also need run-off elections to prevent vote splitting. Political ridings should be reduced from the ridiculous 100,000 people to 30,000 people.

Pickup trucks need to be smaller, and like sedans, have sloped hoods to minimize pedestrian deaths in an accident.

Cities should discourage car use through tolls. While driving 100cc motorcycles for 14years should be legalized for northern communities as means for kids to get to school.

But all we get is a stupid cultural war.

i assume degree mills as in for-profit universities, aka UOP types. people who earn legitimate degree cant find a job either too.
