Manitoba Trucking Association

Manitoba Trucking Association The Manitoba Trucking Association exists to develop and maintain a safe and healthy business environment for our industry members.

The Manitoba Trucking Association exists to advocate, support and educate to ensure a safe and healthy business environment for the trucking industry. We have been the voice of the trucking industry in Manitoba since 1932. We are, first and foremost, an advocacy group working on behalf of the trucking industry. We are comprised of Carrier members and Associated Trades members. We have over 300 mem

ber companies that represent over 10,000 employees. Those member companies represent about 25% of the for-hire trucking companies in Manitoba, whose fleets represent over 75% of the trucks licensed in Manitoba. Our Carrier members range in size from one‐truck operators to companies with over a thousand trucks. We have PSV (for‐hire) fleets, private fleets, household mover fleets, heavy haul fleets, couriers and local cartage companies among our membership. Our Board of Directors receives input from the Associated Trades Division, Trucking Safety Council, Vehicle Maintenance Council, Bulk Milk Haulers, plus other committees that can operate on a short or long term basis. Members of the MTA’s Board of Directors also represent the MTA’s interests at the national level on the CTA’s (Canadian Trucking Alliance) Board of Directors and Advisory Committees.

**NOMINATION DEADLINE: JULY 31, 2026**

Nominations for the 2026 MTA-Bridgestone Trucking Hero Award are NOW OPEN (but not for long)!

What do we mean by hero? Heroism is defined as heroic conduct especially as exhibited in fulfilling a high purpose or attaining a noble end; often while putting someone else’s safety or wellbeing ahead of one’s own.

All acts, no matter how major or minor are significant! It’s important to recognize these acts and honor these individuals. Not only do they help someone in need, they can also inspire and encourage others to be better citizens. Let’s celebrate those among us who embody this caring spirit.

Nomination deadline: July 31, 2026 Visit our website to nominate a trucking hero today!
