Canada Calling: Breaking Down Barriers in Cross-Provincial Trucking – July 17th, 2025
In one of the longest-running segments on Road Gang Radio, Canada Calling returns with Jim Park and Joanne Ritchie of OBAC to tackle a hot topic in Canadian freight: internal trade barriers. From steering axle weights to oversized load permitting and the call for a federal CDL, Jim and Joanne unpack the key takeaways from a recent national Trucking Hackathon. Joanne kicks things off with the context behind Canada’s internal trade agreement, and Jim dives into the nitty-gritty of regulatory friction that’s slowing down east-west supply chains. If you haul north of the border—or just want a peek behind Canada’s policy curtain—this is one conversation you won’t want to miss.
