We have dual citizenships from Poland and Canada. We are originally all from Poland though, even I was born there. But I enjoy all the people flaming me in this thread, all I can do is recommend you guys to a "bridging" professional.
Stuff like this in Canada does not fly either, but the trucking industry is just one of those places where you do what you're told or you get the boot. It takes 5 minutes to see if someone is natural and has the logic to drive a 60 + foot vehical without killing anyone.
To the flamers here, don't flame me, I will tell you who you should be flaming. You should be flaming the college for:
1. Accepting these individuals into the licensing program.
2. Graduating them and issuing them licenses so they can go and most likely cause an accident in the future because even after 3 months of lessons they still are not confident in their driving ability.
You should also be flaming the Canadian ministry of transportation for allowing individuals from overseas to obtain instant licenses in Canada without having to do any sort of road tests. Many of these people come from places where they have never even driven a car, or if they did the rules on their roads are non existent (for example in India most places don't even have traffic lights and hundreds of people die from motorvehical related accidents). All of a sudden they come here and are allowed to drive on 16 lane highways because they are over 30 + and have some sort of license from their native country. Go lawl @ the real issues, not my dads briding mechanics

You know most of them probably just nod eagerly in the hopes that the senile old coot next to them will just STFU?
I highly doubt that, they call him "Sir" and they listen patiently/attentively like no tomorow. Im pretty sure my dad would know if they were just pretending to play "dumb". The point of the story is that they actually do fall for it and are serious in their inquiries. Plus my dad and his trucking buddies all talk about shit they do while giving lessons, hearing them talk sometimes is like a fuckin comedy show. The best is when they compare counts of how many sign poles each one mowed down today with the trailer. If they mow their own mirrors down because they drive too close to the curb its like bonus points. And if they destroy a docking warehouse and rearrange bricks its like they scored the jackpot of the day, either that or making the transmission explode lol.
Those trucks are 2007 models and have like 80,000 km on them and have been through so many repairs its not even funny.
And maybe ya we are both douchebags but you have to have fun in life, or else whats the point?

Hypothetically (to all the people who think his dad is the devil), if all the students were born and raised americans just stupid and/or gullible would you think him as much of a asshole?

He also takes some that just came to Canada by this warehouse that has a huge moose on top of it with wings. Then he tells them about this rare animal we have here and how they can see it if they go to Algonquin Park during the end of the summer when it's their mating season. The more intelligent students will ask if it's a bird or a mammal and how could it be possible. He tells them about bats and how they are mammals, which results in a deep state of thought. I wonder if any park rangers that work at Algonquin Park ever got anyone asking about flying mooses. LOL
We had one up here in Alaska. If I remember the story correctly, a moose fell off of a cliff hanging over the road and landed on a police car.
:laugh:That's not flying! That's falling with style!!

EDIT: Found it. I thought the original report had been that it landed on the car, but apparently it fell in front of it.
From the article:
Peterson called one of the charities that salvage road kill.
x1billion+WTF.
