U.S. visa suspensions a warning Canadian trucking must heed: CTA

The Canadian Trucking Alliance (CTA) is warning that while the U.S. suspension on new visas for foreign truck drivers won’t have much, if any, impact on Canadian drivers, it should be seen as a warning to industry to clean up its act.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio posted on X last week that the U.S. is immediately pausing the issuance of all visas to truck drivers which require them to operate in the U.S.

On occasion the CBC does good work. I expect those responsible for the trucker expose were executed however.

El Chapo cartel kingpin: I’m sorry for flooding US with drugs

A former Mexican cartel kingpin apologised for flooding the US with cocaine and other substances as he pleaded guilty to drug trafficking.

“I recognise the great harm illegal drugs have done to the people in the United States and Mexico,” Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada told a Brooklyn federal court on Monday through an interpreter. “I apologise for all of it, and I take responsibility for my actions.”

Under the leadership of Zambada and Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán, prosecutors say the Sinaloa cartel evolved from a regional player into the largest drug trafficking organisation in the world.

He said the magic word! Release him!
