vancouver area trucking
hi been posting on a few forums australia canada and new zealand as regards trucking jobs we are determined to get away from britain for a better life for ourselves and our 3 year old. need to contact any bc truckers who can give me an insight into pros and cons of living in bc. we have virtually decided now that oz and new zealand are out and are left with our first choice canada. need to know the kind of work you do and do you mainly drive in canada or mostly down into the usa and roughly what kind of salaries. dont need exact figures just ball park figures. have had a few conversations with lads from saskatchewan but really always had our heart set on bc. any help would be greatly appreciated as whats left of my thinning hair is gradually falling through trawling the site to find answers. cheers stuart

As far as I'm aware, British Columbia suspended its 'entry level semi skilled' route last September. (which includes truck driving)
They might bring it back at some stage. Who knows...

Re: vancouver area trucking
