There will be no more delays in enforcement of the electronic logging device (ELD) mandate for federally regulated carriers, authorities confirm to the Canadian Trucking Alliance. The mandate will take effect on Jan. 1, 2023.<\/p>\n
CTA has been advised by the Canadian Council of Motor Transport Administrators (CCMTA) that the provinces and territories are firmly committed to enforcing the ELD mandate in January 2023 and no announcements on further delays are expected. If a particular jurisdiction is not able to enforce the rule in January, all others who are ready will proceed with enforcement at that time, regardless.<\/p>\n
\u201cBased on updates from our government partners at CCMTA and provincial associations, it is our clear understanding all jurisdictions will be ready to start enforcement on January 1,\u201d said Geoff Wood, CTA\u2019s Sr. VP, Policy. \u201cBut, if there\u2019s unforeseen circumstances that lead to a jurisdiction not being ready to enforce, other jurisdictions that are ready and prepared will not be held back and will go forward. The industry has been well prepared for this rule for a long time and has waited long enough for enforcement. It\u2019s time enforcement begins.\u201d<\/p>\n
In recent discussions with CTA\u2019s provincial trucking associations and provincial\/federal officials responsible for the introduction and enforcement of the ELD mandate, governments across the country have indicated they are busy preparing for enforcement and report no major technical roadblocks that would prevent enforcement in January.<\/p>\n
According to these same reports, the only remaining provinces left to finalize their regulatory paths are Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Labrador, Quebec and British Columbia.\u00a0However, the Quebec Trucking Association expects matters to be finalized shortly, while the BC Trucking Association says it has been assured the government of BC will also be in a position to begin enforcement of ELDs as of January 1. The Atlantic Provinces Trucking Association reports that it believes both Newfoundland and Labrador and Nova Scotia will also enforce in January 2023.<\/p>\n
Below are comments from the provincial trucking association leaders within CTA on the ELD mandate:<\/p>\n
\u201cSafety on our roads is our top priority; therefore, it is extremely important that enforcement of ELD\u2019s start January 2023.
