America Is Quietly Losing Canadian Truckers (Here’s Why)

Canadian truckers are still crossing into the U.S. every day — but more drivers and carriers are taking a much harder look before they accept the load. In this video I break down four pressures hitting Canada–U.S. trucking right now: tariffs, weaker backhauls, tighter cabotage enforcement, roadside English-language rules, and the border inspections that come with them. A southbound run that looked profitable a year ago can stop making financial sense before you even clear the scale. We look at the Gordie Howe International Bridge, empty miles, owner-operator cost per mile, freight rates, commercial vehicle inspections, and why some Canadian carriers are quietly moving trucks onto domestic lanes. This is not an organized boycott. It's thousands of individual decisions being made one load at a time.
