About CTOA
Canada Truck Operators Association brings together the full trucking community
Who We Are
CTOA brings together the full trucking community - drivers, owner-operators, incorporated contractors, and fleets of all sizes, including small, medium, and large carriers.
From one-truck entrepreneurs to companies operating 500+ units, our members keep Canada's supply chain moving.
Our mission is clear:
- Promote safety and professionalism
- Strengthen compliance and eliminate bad actors
- Ensure fair treatment and respect for all drivers
- Protect legitimate entrepreneurship in trucking
- Give REAL drivers and small carriers a voice in policy
From Brampton to Vancouver, Winnipeg to Calgary, our members power Canada's economy, and deserve a seat at every table where decisions are made.
Our Focus Areas
Safety & Training
We support strong safety standards, better training, and enforcement against repeat-offender carriers.
Fair & Transparent Compliance
We support proper tax compliance and clear guidance from CRA, ESDC, and Transport Canada. We push for equal rules across industries, not targeted enforcement.
Advocacy & Government Relations
CTOA works directly with municipalities, provinces, and federal ministries to ensure policies reflect real on-the-ground realities.
Protecting the Entrepreneurial Driver
Many drivers choose incorporation for flexibility, family life balance, or business growth. CTOA ensures their voices are not drowned out by misinformation.
Industry Collaboration
We partner with safety experts, training schools, insurers, tech firms, and industry leaders to bring modern solutions to our members.
