Canada-Only Carriers?

[choozin]

Can anyone help point me in the direction of some cargo van carriers who operate exclusively or primarily within Canada, meaning they don't require you to travel cross-border?

Thanks in advance

I am a Canadian expeditor and as far as I know there are none. I haven't looked into it too deeply though. However, you may be able to find a company that will only get Canadian loads for you if that's what you want.

I've talked to a recruiter with Thompson Emergency who told me they had to let someone go who couldn't go cross-border and had been with them for years... I've been trying to contact a few other companies (TFT, RJR Expedite, Rapidgo, and FF Express), but haven't heard back yet.

You wouldn't happen to know any other carriers worth trying would you? Or know of any resources I might not be using to find them?

I was thinking maybe a smaller carrier with only a half dozen vans on the road might be more likely to stay in-country, but I'm thinking those guys might not have a major online presence. (Been considering going to a truck stop and sitting with a sign asking for references haha)

Unfortunately I really have no idea of which carriers would do this.
