* Canada - Truckers blast Councillor's second attempt at T.O.

The OTA says the idea to ban Toronto bound trucks in rush hour is 'absurd' and 'impractical.'

Toronto,ONT,CAN -Truckstop Canada News -29 May 2007: -- Toronto Councillor Michael Walker renewed calls recently to ban all trucks from hogtown's downtown core during rush hours... It's deja vu all over again at City Hall as Walker is once more asking city council's executive committee to study his plan to restrict delivery trucks from downtown from 7 to 10 a.m. and 3 to 6 p.m.... Ontario Trucking Association President David Bradley said as much this time around when he described the plan as being "designed solely to garner headlines and votes for Michael Walker as opposed to doing anything to resolve gridlock."... And just as when the controversial idea was first floated (and subsequently scrapped) two years ago, trucking, shipping and retail groups have responded by calling the plan "absurd," "ill-conceived," and "impractical."...
