7511 'example titles' all okay for PNP???
After much faffing around I'm starting to get my head around the PNP process and was just looking at the NOC list headed '7511 Transport truck drivers'
Example Titles
bulk goods truck driver
dump truck driver
flatbed truck driver
logging truck driver
long haul truck driver
moving van driver
shunt truck driver
tow truck driver
transport driver
truck driver
truck driver, heavy truck
truck driver, tractor-trailer
Would all these titles be eligible for applying through PNP?, that can't be right can it?
Also, under 'employment requirements' I read;

I think(manitoba) its noc 7411c Long distance truck driver .
only for a TWP. cant speak for other provinces.
meaning that your journeys must be inter provincial .
you can be trained in a accredicated school , that means you can claim 60% of cost of training back on taxes at end o yr.
some guys do a wk or so course and some do more
imo i paid for my own an did a 6wk course ( i could afford it )
was 2wk driving plus class room rules regs canada /usa,
log book regs, chains etc.
i was road ready to go ,lol ,i had 25+ yrs driving in uk /euro..
nb. company i was going to had uk drivers before and they only did 2wk course and had to take then of road due to rules /log book probs.
lots of strange rules over here and if you are stopped at a scale and somethings wrong with logbook etc...no mercy shown just because you are a new start.

I have just over 25 yrs too now uk/euro/ireland, but if there's a lot of new stuff to learn suppose it's best not skrimp on the lessons.
Wonder if any companies will pay for a six week stint???...

I have heard of companys paying training but its usually on the job double team for wk or two.as you need to show experience to get lmo,twp.
As you know after 25yrs driving we have all picked up bad habits ,,my main ones were elbow on door,,hand on gearlever..

Re: 7511 'example titles' all okay for PNP???
Most PNP's with a semi-skilled stream for truckers are for a specific NOC code, but if you can prove you do the majority of duties under that NOC code, then it doesn't matter if your actual job title is one of the ones under the 'related' list.
Although as jamesmc said it's usually long distance truck driver (7411) that qualifies for the PNP.

There's no trucking option under the Ontario PNP, it wouldn't be possible to get PR there from a TWP.

"Winnipeg is ranked second for Canada's clearest skies year-round, sixth sunniest city year-round, and second for sunniest city in Canada in spring and winter".
sounds great, but then I read...
"Tornadoes are not uncommon in the area,...A Fujita scale F5 tornado struck Elie (just 40 km (25 mi) west of Winnipeg) in 2007; this was the strongest tornado ever recorded in Canada".
somebody somewhere is sticking pins in my doll!

er, here's just another question that you could probably answer...I used to do night trunking to Bellshill a lot and there was a truck stop on the A74 Northbound just before you start dropping down towards Hamilton.
I can't for my life remember the name of the place and it's driving me nuts trying to remember it ??? ......
