Member of Parliament for Wellington-Halton Hills, Michael Chong, along with Member of Parliament for Kitchener-Conestoga, Harold Albrecht on behalf of Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz announced an investment of $183,929 to the Canadian Animal Health Coalition (CAHC) to help ensure that livestock and poultry are transported in a safe and humane manner by certified transporters
This support will allow CAHC to develop an on-line driver training and driver verification system, based on the existing Canadian Livestock Transport (CLT) Certification program that will simplify, standardize and provide an opportunity for truckers, shippers and receivers to more easily access the training necessary to improve handling practices.
