Does anyone have experience in trucking over there?

Although not a trucker myself I do know a little about it. Canada is desperate for truck drivers and many companies will even help you to get over here as long as you sign a 1 year contract with them. H&R transport in Lethbridge, Alberta is just one that I know of. My sisters husband was all set to sign up and move over but he ran into health concerns and had to cancel. http://www.hrtrans.com/
Hope this helps....

You are welcome Si! $8'500 is a joke!! As I mentioned, my brother in law was about to sign up with H&R but had some high blood pressure and that halted it all.
Good luck
