Canada’s trucking industry is facing a shocking scandal.

It’s called Driver Inc., and critics say it is costing taxpayers up to $1 billion a year.

But according to drivers, industry leaders, and trucking operators, the money may not even be the worst part.

They warn this underground tax and labour scheme may also be putting Canadian lives at risk on our roads.

In this episode, I speak with National Post journalist Jamie Sarkonak about how Driver Inc. works, why it has become so widespread, what it means for road safety, and whether Canada is doing enough to stop it.
