Across Ontario, at least 6,100 more truck drivers are needed to fill job vacancies and to ensure families and businesses receive goods on time and the province’s economy reaches its full potential. Only two per cent of Ontario truck drivers are women
The Ontario government will spend $1.3 million to prepare 54 women, newcomers and others from underrepresented groups for careers in the trucking industry.
“This innovative program will help break down barriers to attract more women into the trucking industry,” said Premier Doug Ford. "The WTFC is a network of women created for women to empower, expand and retain employment of — and shift attitudes about — women in the industry," says their website. “Truckers are the everyday heroes who keep the wheels of our economy turning, and we need to ensure more people have a chance to explore these purpose-driven careers,” said Monte McNaughton, Minister of Labour.
