I just want to help women get into the trucking industry .

By focusing on :

  • Advocacy…
  • Mentoring…
  • Networking…
  • Empowerment…
  • Education…
  • Camaraderie…
  • Pride and Passion in what we do

The more creative we get about how to support and celebrate women in the trucking industry, the more we can guarantee we’re making history. For too many years women have assumed (hoped) that their accomplishments will speak for themselves. It’s important to have a group of women around for advice, guidance, networking, and emotional support.

Many women are looking for independence, the ability to travel and a good income. This is the one industry where one road can lead to another. You can travel as far as you want to go.

Let’s not compete with other people in the industry, but rather collaborate with them.  The Women’s Trucking Federation of Canada needs your input and financial support. This is not just an organization, but a network. We hope that you will join us.
