2020 was a scary year and we didn't know if this was the way it was going to be forever. People were dying by the thousands, riots broke out, and truckers were heroes, bringing us everything we needed in spite of the disease raging throughout the world.

 Listen to our Trucker Radio news and talk segment from back then, which later morphed into what is now the TruckNewsTalk (TNT) podcast.  www.trucknewstalk.com

HARRIET TUBMAN AWARD TO TRUCKERS

I’ve doing some history reading lately, and discovered an event in US history that may sound very familiar in 2025… and there is a connection to Canada.

Classic Thinking & Trucking Women

Kim and the School Rules

Remember MELT. Kim Richardson says it MELT has MELTED.

Sex Investors.

Want to end sex trafficking? Stop investing in this multi-billion-dollar illegal industry. It’s simple. No buyer means no victim which means no sex trafficking. Yes, it’s simple, but it’s not easy. Most sex buyers are men, yet only six percent of men purchase sex. That means that there is an opportunity for the other...

We’ve been talking to Jane Jazrawy about the Best Fleets to Drive for competition for several years but this time I have some probing questions. Questions like, who benefits? Just how many questions do you ask? Who cheats?  What if you’re a driver and you hate your company? What about women drivers? Where do they fit in?
