Start trucking! - Canada - Drivers ready to get goods moving again at Vancouver port
VANCOUVER,Can -Edmonton Sun, by CP -August 3, 2005: -- Container truck drivers haven't rushed back to work at Vancouver's ports after the port authority imposed a new licensing system on trucking companies aimed at ending a five-week strike... Port spokesman Anne McMullin said between 200 and 300 trucks were moving goods from the port, about the same number as were operating throughout the strike by container truck owner-operators... The port has given the companies until tomorrow to sign up for the new licences... Under the new licence system, anyone with a container tied up at the port has to sign a licence agreeing to a proposed settlement that would, among other things, increase haulage rates...
