LONDON, Ont. – National Truck League has hosted a poster
contest for employees’ kids, to show their support for truck drivers.
The winning entries will be announced June 10, with the
signs posted at National Truck League’s London, Ont., headquarters for truckers
to enjoy.
“Our staff
has been working from home since March 18. Most have school aged kids at home.
To support our employees and the trucking industry Thank A Trucker campaign, we
hosted a poster contest to help with activities for children at home and to
heighten their awareness of the industry,” explained Rod Stiller, NTL
president.
“We have
been working with truck drivers for almost 30 years now and it is so refreshing
to see them get the credit they are due. Truck driving can be a difficult
career where you don’t get to be at home a lot and there are road dangers all
the time. During the Covid-19 crisis, they have continued to deliver supplies
all Canadians need including protective equipment for medical workers. The
poster contest has given our staff an opportunity to be able to explain to
their young families how truckers have made this time easier for us who have
had stay at home orders.”
