Transportation

During question period on transportation, Grant Jackson of the Conservatives asked about a fatal collision involving a semi-truck near Brandon, Manitoba. He said the trucking company had lost its safety licence in Manitoba but continued operating using a licence from another province, and asked why the transport minister had not closed that loophole. Steven MacKinnon, the Liberal minister, offered condolences and said highway safety is largely a provincial responsibility, adding that Manitoba has called for a national list of certified trucking companies and that the federal government is ready to help bring that about.Written by AI from the debate.
