YOU’RE DEAD WRONG! There is only one American Trucking Company period that OWNS a Mexican Trucking Company, and it isn’t Schneider. This ownership deal was consumated years before the NAFTA agreement was inked.
I cannot and will not state any further on this matter, but want to nip your conspiracy thoughts in their budding form. It just ain’t so Alberta’s Child.
Understand this, the American Truckers are fighting tooth and nail for the freight existing as it is. With the addition of Mexican Truckers to the scene you will see many go under. This deal is a one way street you and I will pay for dearly in lives lost and jobs lost.
This will not simply effect the trucking industry, but also other aspects of the shipping industry as well. This will open up movement to Mexico of other related Industry.
Bottom line.
Like NAFTA, the warnings were clear...Only the high end few would prosper from these destructive trade deals, while once again beating the American working class over the head.
You know what's funny? The Fedgov tells us all these trucks will be safe, inspected etc. Well these unsafe Mexican trucks have already been coming in for years now, they've been carrying tons of drugs, and human cargo, and who knows what else. And they are trying to convince us this will be different?
How stupid is this?
This is one key area where the ATA is at odds with the independent owner-operators who consitute about 80%-90% of the truckers on the road today.
Large trucking COMPANIES are big supporters of Mexican trucks on U.S. roads. Truck DRIVERS are not.
