A debate about road safety and trucking regulations. The Bloc Québécois raised concerns about increasing accidents involving heavy-duty trucks. The Liberals highlighted federal actions to address the issue, including eliminating special treatment from the CRA and preventing companies from operating outside the law. The Bloc accused the Liberals of being influenced by a trucking lobby group. The Liberals called for a shared responsibility and better inspection and enforcement.
“I want the federal government to control more and look like the good guy. The provinces and police should do the real work of keeping roads safe.”
“You Liberals are covering up for your trucking lobby friends who gave you money. Instead of protecting the public, you're protecting donors. I want an investigation into this.”
“I want to avoid blame for the government. The government has acted but problems are someone else's job.”
