From The CBC:
"In 2023, the federal government issued 542 wage payment orders against trucking companies, according to data obtained by CBC News. By July of this year, there were already 491 orders.
Marco Beghetto, a spokesperson for the Ontario Trucking Association, points to one simple reason for the growing trend.
"Frankly, non-compliance pays," he said. He says many trucking companies aren't afraid of the consequences.
The government made changes to the Canada Labour Code this year, allowing the Canada Revenue Agency and Employment and Social Development Canada to work closely together to audit companies for violations."
Wow. That's bad.
