All i can say is good luck to walmart . i\u2019ve heard loblaws is not happy with canada cartage and hiring their own drivers again<\/p>\n<p>Just thinking about it now that a walmart warehouse in Mississauga has decided to join the union . i wonder if a reason for getting rid of their private fleet is because they were afraid that the drivers would also sign<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Click to expand&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<p>This is wild to me, after the whole Bison\/Syndicate\/New Way Trucking\/Versacold CPX fiasco Walmart went through (I was at Bison at the time) which led to them bringing Walmart fleet up here to Canada in the first place. It seems like they&#8217;re going back to that model, with a way worse option! <\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;re correct on Loblaws, they went 4 tracks, Laidlaw, IHaul, Rig Logistics, Syndicate, etc etc etc to get away from having &#8220;Loblaws\/Westfair Foods&#8221; private fleet. Now they&#8217;ve dumped all those carriers, and are back to Loblaws Fleet lol.<\/p>\n<p>They all ####ing suck tho, Walmart fleet here in Alberta was beyond a disaster, Loblaws fleet is already a disaster, and all the carriers mentioned above; everyone knows they&#8217;re disasters.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\n\t!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n\t\tn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\n\t\tn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n\t\tt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\n\t\tdocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n\tfbq('dataProcessingOptions', []);\n\tfbq('init', '1812746315680142'); \/\/ Insert your pixel ID here.\n\t\t\t\tfbq('track', 'PageView');\n\t\t<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruckersreport.com\/truckingindustryforum\/threads\/canada-cartage-takes-over-walmart-canada%E2%80%99s-fleet-business.2519998\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I guess you didn\u2019t see i posted the same story earlier in the day .
