Now Is The Time To Shop Canadian!
For over 53 years, our family-owned newspaper has connected hardworking Canadians in the heavy equipment and trucking industries.
Since 1971, Supply Post has been committed to supporting this vital sector by providing a trusted marketplace for buying and selling quality equipment and trucks.
Today, more than ever, it’s crucial that we continue to invest in our own economy by buying Canadianmade products, purchasing from Canadian businesses, and supporting local sellers.
Every time we choose a Canadian-made machine or
truck, or buy from a Canadian dealer or private or local seller, we are keeping skilled tradespeople employed, strengthen our manufacturing sector, and ensure that our money stays within our own communities. The same applies when we purchase parts, tools, and services from Canadian suppliers. These decisions sustain jobs and drive innovation right here at home.
In light of recent political events, we have decided to
highlight articles that have a Canadian origin. We know this is complicated, with our intertwined supply chains and manufacturing. Look for the following symbol in an article; it will have some kind of Canadian origin:
Whether it is partially manufactured in Canada, assembled, or contains Ca-
nadian parts, or the owners are based in Canada, we hope that it will spotlight Canadian products.
The challenges of recent years have reminded us of the importance of economic resilience. When we prioritize local businesses, we ensure that Canada’s heavy equipment and trucking industries remain strong for future generations. Next time you’re making a purchase, consider where your money is going. Let’s keep it local, keep it Canadian, and keep our industry thriving.
Since 1971, the Supply Post has proudly served as a resource for buyers and sellers throughout BC and across the country. We are 100% Canadian family owned and operated and we will continue to champion Canadian businesses. SP

CPKC Orders Ballard Fuel Cell Engines For North American Locomotives
Ballard Power Systems has announced the signing of a new Long Term Supply Agreement with Canadian Pacific Kansas City, including the initial supply of 98 fuel cell engines for use in the North American freight rail market.
Each engine has a nameplate of 200 kW, totaling approximately 20 megawatts (MW) of fuel cell power. Deliveries of all 98 engines are expected in 2025.
The LTSA builds on an existing partnership between Ballard and CPKC, which started in 2021, and has included delivery of approximately 10 MW of fuel cell
engines to date and the successful integration of Ballard fuel cell engines into hydrogen-powered locomotives for regular switching and freight service applications in Alberta, Canada. The fuel cell engines purchased from Ballard will support the expansion of CPKC’s hydrogen locomotive program.
“We are thrilled with the
opportunity to further develop our strategic relationship with CPKC to decarbonize not only their locomotive fleet but also participate in the electrification of freight rail across North America,” said Randy MacEwen, President and CEO of Ballard Power.
“This order represents a step forward in CPKC’s decarbonization vision and confidence in hydrogen fuel cells as a potential long-term replacement of diesel engines, providing the environmental benefits along with long range, fast refueling, heavy payloads, and cold weather operation.”
Prototype diesel freight locomotives retrofitted with hydrogen fuel cells, hydrogen storage and battery packs have undergone various testing at CPKC since 2022. CPKC currently has three hydrogen locomotives in operation. SP

Nors Hits The Road In Canada To Launch Global Brand
In order to reinforce the strategy of a single brand and to boost its differentiated offer globally, Nors has started a plan of roadshows in the various countries in which it is present, including Canada, with stops in British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, and Atlantic provinces.
Highlighting the importance of this market for the organization’s legacy, this roadshow is taking place as part of Nors’ rebranding process and transformation journey, which has taken on a unique, transversal and global dimension, and is now designated as a single brand in all the geographies where it is present.
This new strategy and brand architecture will globally boost Nors’ differentiated offer, which in 2024 recorded an estimated turnover of $596.5 million Canadian dollars, and delivered 875 units of construction equipment, positioning itself as a benchmark player in the construction sector.
Positioning itself as a strategic market for Nors since 2020, with the acquisition of Strongco and then, in 2024, with Great West Equipment, the activity in Canada has been driven by the ability to provide innovative, high-quality solutions, adapted to the specific needs of this market and which add value for its customers.
Employing more than 760 collaborators and with a total of 36 branches in 8 provinces of the country,
the global roadshow in the Canadian regions reaffirms Nors’ commitment to the sustainable and innovative development of this market.
For Francisco Ramos, COO of the Nors Group, “The Canadian market is of great strategic relevance to Nors, both in the present and for our future, given its growth potential. Since 2020 we have been gradually bringing our 90+ years of experience and expertise to Canada, by building a value proposition based on high-quality products and partnerships, anchored in an excellent after-sales service, in close proximity to our clients. With this in mind, we are undertaking an ongoing investment process in excellent products and services, technology and infrastructures that will enable us to better serve our current and potential clients in the future.”
“The We Are One” roadshow will tour the different countries in which Nors is present, reinforcing the purpose of “Improving life and business through a service and equipment of reference, creating continuous value for all” and based on the values of
Legacy, Humanism, Ambition, Agility and Integrity.
About Nors
Driven by progress and building on a legacy of more than 90 years, Nors adapts to market needs and transforms itself to elevate life and business through reference services and equipment. Now with a single brand, Nors operates globally in five business areas: Trucks and Buses, Construction Equipment, Agro, Aftermarket and Ventures. Thanks to the strategic change, it offers a diversified portfolio and integrated services, maintaining close and trusting relationships between partners, customers and the market.

Expo Grands Travaux Returns To Saint Hyacinthe This Spring
The largest heavy equipment trade event in Eastern Canada will soon return to Quebec for its 2025 edition.
Expo Grands Travaux moves into Espace SaintHyacinthe this Spring, March 26th and 27th, and will round together some of the industry’s biggest players.
“The planning process is coming along quite smoothly for the return of this key event.” said Mark Cusack, National Show Manager.
“After talking with exhibitors its clear everyone is ea-
the engine and pump enclosures and prop-up roof sections to access winch system components.
All machine functions are actuated with an ergonomic and intuitive remote-control system. The powerful, heavy duty boom system with choice of a bucket or other attachments firmly anchors the machine and can take on basic roadbuilding duties. With ample below grade capability, the boom can extend over the road bank to firmly anchor the machine.
High-capacity cooling combined with a secondary hydraulic braking circuit provides highly effective braking assistance and heat dissipation for higher-speed rubber tire machines such as skidders, forwarders and harvesters.
The relatively long distance between the boommounted sheave and the winch, and the powered cable tension system combine to provide neat and reliable rope spooling. With the boom anchor system planted firmly in the ground, the cable can be operated off to the side of the machine, thanks to the pivoting sheave. SP

Preparing Your Business For Potential Tariffs: What You Need To Know
With the threats of a proposed 25 per cent tariff on all imports from Canada and Mexico by U.S. President Donald Trump, many businesses are starting to assess how these changes might impact them.
While these tariffs have not been finalized and will require negotiations between the two sides, it’s always wise to be prepared.
The Canadian Construction Association (CCA) offers the following tips to help construction professionals navigate potential changes in tariffs and protect their businesses.
For existing contracts: What you should know
Review your contract:
Check if your contract includes provisions for price adjustments due to changes in taxes and customs duties, such as paragraph 10.1 in CCDC 2—Stipulated Price Contract or CCA 1—Stipu-
lated Price Subcontract. Remember to review the supplementary conditions even with standard CCDC and CCA contract forms.
Contracts without duty provisions: If no duty provisions are included, contractors may be liable for covering the increased costs.
CCA encourages owners to fairly consider requests for price adjustments if contractors are facing unforeseen cost increases due to tariffs.
For new contracts: How to address tariff uncertainty
Raise the issue early: If the contract for a potential project lacks duty provisions, especially if you’re aware of upcoming changes to taxes or customs duties, formally bring this to the owner’s attention.
Include duty provisions: Encourage the owner to include duty provisions or address this uncertainty in the bid documents. Look to GC
10.1 of CCDC 2 for standard, industry-accepted wording.
Other considerations: Key points to remember Argue for cost recovery: If you’re facing unforeseen costs due to increases in taxes and customs duties, you may have a case for recovering additional costs. However, without clear duty provisions in the contract, this may be challenging.
Cost recovery due to delays: If a project experiences changes, delays, or suspensions that postpone material purchases and result in escalated costs, contractors might be able to recover these additional expenses, depending on the contract and situation.
Final tip: Always read your contract
The most important piece of advice is to carefully read and understand your contracts.
Staying informed and prepared will help your business navigate potential tariff changes with confidence. Learn more at SupplyPost. com/news. SP

DC Equipment Showcases
Iconic Brand Madill
DC Equipment, a manufacturer of logging and forestry equipment, is expanding its presence at the Oregon Logging Conference in Eugene, Oregon.
The company showcased Madill logging equipment for the first time in the United States along with its Falcon Forestry Equipment brand.
“Last year, we relaunched production of the Madill brand, renowned for its reliability in the logging industry, and are excited to be bringing a Madill 3000B log loader to this important
event along with our Falcon equipment series,” said Dale Ewers, Managing Director of DC Equipment. “We now have the capacity to support North American logging contractors and customers first hand.”
A new generation of forestry equipment
Mr. Ewers noted that DC Equipment has actively listened to customer feedback over the past year, gathering insights from owners, operators, technicians, forestry managers, industry partners and distributors on its current models and future product developments. “Their input guided our design team
to incorporate technological enhancements into our equipment as part of our commitment to continuous improvement,” he said.
The return of Madill log loaders comes with machine improvements. For example, a comprehensive review of the boom and stick has translated into increased durability and strength in key stress areas. “We have also redesigned the cooling package to reduce vibration, generate extra capacity for warmer temperatures and provide access improvements for serviceability,” said Mr. Ewers.
DC Equipment’s commitment and readiness for North American expansion
The DC Equipment team looked forward to attending the 2025 Oregon Logging Conference and taking advantage of this unique opportunity to discuss the future of Madill Equipment with customers.
should have the opportunity to be involved.”
“We [invited] contractors, forest managers and operators to our stand to discuss what they would like to see from Madill in North America,” said Mr. Ewers. “Madill is coming back to America and we believe that the people who support the brand
DC Equipment’s expansion into North America is part of a broader strategic initiative to enable local manufacturing while meeting global demand. DC Equipment now has facilities in South America, North America and Oceania, ensuring that the company can meet demand for the Falcon and Madill products worldwide while maintaining strong manufacturing capabilities at home.
“By manufacturing locally, we can ensure faster delivery times and maintain the highest standards of quality and innovation that our customers have come to expect from Madill and DC Equipment,” said Mr. Ewers.

Genie’s New Telehandlers Built for Fast Return On Investment
Genie expands its family of telescopic handlers with the addition of two shorter boom, high-capacity models.
The GTH-1244 and GTH1044 are designed with the best load chart in their respective category classes and new features, making them highly efficient for pick-and-carry applications.
“These short-stick telehandlers are ideal for rental fleets, looking to diversify their product offering, or for specialty rental companies serving customers in industrial maintenance, energy, and steel erection. This improves costs while delivering capacity and productivity to maximize ROI,” said Amalija Kopac, Senior Global Product Manager.
The booms in Genie’s telehandler portfolio are robust, with proven durability over thousands of hours of real-world testing. That same boom design with strong load chart capacities is incorporated into the new GTH-1244 and GTH-1044, but with one less section.
Eliminating the weight of
long lasting, significantly reducing tire replacement costs.
• 80% commonality of parts through the full telehandler portfolio reduces parts inventory and simplifies maintenance.
that boom section allows for other design changes that reduce maintenance costs.
• A single master and lift cylinder extends and retracts the boom, compared with two cylinders found on competing models. In addition, hydraulic hoses are routed away from sharp edges. The flexible hoses are encased in a protective wrap to prevent wear.
• Both models come standard with a 74 hp DEFfree engine that eliminates service costs associated with DEF filters or regeneration.
• Electronics can be sensitive and expensive to repair. A redesigned gauge cluster comes with an IP67 seal and thicker housing, preventing exposure to dust and moisture, reducing maintenance and repair.
• Standard foam-filled Enduro A/T tires with improved tread design are
Both the GTH-1244 and GTH-1044 offer the most efficient way of handling loads without the need for stabilizers. “These pick-and-carry machines have high capacities for quickly moving loads lower to the ground because the absence of stabilizers reduces cycle time,” said Kopac.
Several intentional features are designed for supporting high-cycle load handling. The 74 hp engine delivers a high power –toweight ratio, ensuring fast drive speeds, and the drivetrain has front and rear limited slip differentials as standard, improving traction through rough terrain. Genie’s limited slip differentials increase machine power and speed by utilizing engine power more efficiently, and reduce stress on tires and axle shafts, improving their durability.
Operators have 360-degree visibility of all four tires, while a single, multi-functional joystick results in half as many hand movements required to position loads. In addition, operators can make load adjustments at full height without locking the rear axle.
A heavy-duty lifting shackle comes standard for added convenience when lifting unpalletized materials; in addition, a variety of optional accessories—rotating and swing fork carriages, side shift and fork positioner carriages, and truss and bucket—can be used across many of the other models in Genie’s GTH product line.
The GTH-1244 and GTH1044 complement existing telehandler fleets by providing rental companies with the ability to differentiate equipment by application, increasing utilization and maximizing return on invested capital.
“If your customers are working in energy, oil and gas, industrial maintenance or certain construction applications like jobsite staging or clean up or steel erection, then these high-capacity short boom telehandlers can get you top rental rates and satisfy customer challenges,” said Kopac. SP

New B.C. Council Will Advocate For Forestry Workers
The Province has formed a new council to advance the interests of British Columbia in the longstanding softwood lumber dispute with the United States.
The council brings together leaders from the forestry sector and labour, alongside experts on U.S. relations and officials from the B.C. government.
The B.C. Softwood Lumber Advisory Council convened its first meeting on Jan. 30, 2025, and will meet regularly. It advises the Minister of Forests on the dispute, including the sixth administrative review, providing recommendations on steps B.C. can take to eliminate the 14.4% softwood lumber du-
ties. The council will also help the Province advocate to the federal government as these duties continue to take their toll on B.C.’s forestry sector.
“The U.S. has imposed unjustified softwood lumber duties on Canada for years, and we anticipate that they will likely double before the end of this year,” said Ravi Parmar, Minister of Forests.
“Bringing this team together, I am ready to throw the full weight of B.C. in the ring to fight these duties. We are going to defend the hard-work-
ing forestry workers of B.C. from these unfair duties.”
Parmar will chair the council with a focus on diplomatic and trade strategy and measures to fight for B.C.’s interests in the softwood lumber dispute with the U.S. Council members are:
• Harry Bains, former minister of labour, Government of B.C.
• Dan Battistella, former president, Interior Lumber Manufacturers’ Association
• Linda Coady, former pres-
• Geoff Dawe, national president, Public and Private Workers of Canada
• Rick Doman, chairman, Boreal Carbon Corporation and former forestry executive
• Scott Lunny, western director, United Steelworkers
• Gavin McGarrigle, western regional director, Unifor
• Ric Slaco, former vicepresident and chief forester, Interfor
• Dallas Smith, president and CEO, Nanwakolas Council
• B.C. softwood lumber accounts for nearly 10% of lumber used to build American homes.
“The U.S. forest industry alleges that Canadian softwood lumber is subsidized, and companies sell in the U.S. at below-market prices,” Parmar said. “This is wrong; these allegations couldn’t be further from the truth. We’ve been very clear that we’re happy to come to the table, but that can’t happen if the U.S. industry isn’t willing to negotiate.”
Although this dispute with the U.S. goes back decades, this most recent iteration of the dispute follows the expiry of the Softwood
Lumber Agreement in 2015. At the request of the U.S. lumber industry, the U.S. imposed duties on Canadian softwood lumber, starting in 2017. The B.C. government has worked with the Government of Canada to pursue claims through all available avenues, including under the North American Free Trade Agreement, the CanadaU.S.-Mexico Agreement, the World Trade Organization and the U.S. Court of International Trade.
Past dispute settlement panels have consistently ruled in Canada’s favour in the ongoing softwood lumber dispute, determining that B.C.’s forest policies are compliant with international agreements.
• Canada is the U.S.’s largest source of forest product imports, making up 44% in 2023.
• U.S. consumers will pay for these tariffs and duties, leading to higher prices for the goods and materials people need to build homes, or repair and remodel them.
• In 2023, B.C. exported more than $3.3 billion worth of softwood lumber to the U.S. SP

average fuel consumption of just 25 litres/hr (6.6USG/ HR).
Operational Flexibility
In today’s waste processing industry, companies are constantly looking for ways to maximize efficiency, protect equipment, and reduce operational costs. One effective approach to achieve these goals is by integrating a low-speed, high-torque shredder like the ever-popular EDGE VS420 as a processing step before feeding material into a high-speed grinder.
excel at breaking down or removing those hurtful contaminants and metals before reaching the grinder. This added layer of protection has transformed the operation making their grinding process much more reliable and repeatable with a significate reduction in forced downtime.
All of EDGE Innovate’s range of shredders can handle a wide variety of materials that might have been turned away in the past –from highly contaminated organic feedstocks, industrial waste and construction debris to tires and mixed municipal waste.
New Revenue Streams
We saw this combination in operation when we recently travelled to California to meet the bosses of one of the largest family-owned companies on the West coast who operate a number of EDGE Innovate machines, including an EDGE VS420 shredder and multiple EDGE TRT622 trommels, all supplied by Greenrock Equipment, exclusive distributors for EDGE Innovate products in California and Hawaii.
For any company investing in an EDGE shredder like the VS420 (now available in Electric Hybrid), it will prove to be money well spent, as the shredder provides substantial long-term operational savings.
The major benefit witnessed at this operation was the ability of the VS420 to process feedstocks that contain tough contaminants, such as metal, rocks, or other hard objects. These high torque, low speed shredders
Another major advantage of the low-speed shredder is its ability to break down large, bulky items into smaller, more manageable pieces. This preliminary size reduction creates a consistent material flow that high-speed grinders can handle with greater ease and efficiency. By avoiding clogs and jams, this setup not only increases throughput but also maximizes the quality of the grinder’s output, and it significantly reduces wear and tear on the grinder, extending its lifespan and reducing the need for costly repairs, replacements, and downtime.
By reducing the load on the high-speed grinder, the shredder enables it to operate at a steady pace, increasing the volume of material processed per hour while consuming less energy. This energy-efficient workflow is essential in today’s industry, where minimizing costs and maximizing throughput are top priorities. For example, the EDGE VS420 has an
The EDGE waste shredder here brings operational flexibility to the forefront making it possible for the business to confidently say “Yes” to a wider range of materials, diversify their offerings and allow them to enter new market segments, such as composting, recycling, and biomass fuel production. With the added flexibility to take on new applications and serve a wider client base, companies can tap into new revenue streams and improve their competitive standing. An additional key benefit of EDGE Innovate’s low-speed shredders is their ability to reduce dust. The shredders’ lower operating speeds and controlled shredding action significantly minimize the formation of fine particles, which has multiple advantages. Reduced dust production enhances health and safety by improving air quality, lowering the need for costly dust control. Additionally, less dust accumulation on equipment and workspaces means lower maintenance and clean-up costs but the major benefit from this is a much cleaner, in spec final product, which
is especially beneficial for applications like biomass fuel and mulch.

R2 Impactor
The R2, high performing and very compact track mobile impact crusher, has been designed to complete Keestrack’s product range of impactors. The R2 is easy to operate within city centres where high flexibility and mobility are essential. In a lot of European cities there is a need
for pure electric plug-in construction equipment. With the ZERO-drive, a full electric plug-in drive version, without any combustion engine onboard, Keestrack provides the ideal solution. The new impactor has a capacity up to 150 t/h.
The crusher design features are often similar to the award winning bigger R3 impactor. The hopper (3m³) with integrated vibrating feeder (3300 x 810mm) and pre-screen (1250 x 810mm) also has a asymmetric design to feed the material easy into the inlet (860 x 730mm) which is equipped with a replaceable entry beam.
The newly designed rotor, with a width of 840 mm and a diameter of 920 mm, is made of Hardox steel. The rotor has the same design concept as the bigger R3, R5 and R6, de-
signed to minimize wear. Rotor speed can be adjusted by a hydrostatic drive to finetune the desired grain size. The impact aprons can be serviced from the top which facilitates service maintenance.
The R2 impactor, fully equipped in closed circuit with a 1200 x 3040mm single deck after screen, magnet separator and windsifter has a total weight under 27t and a transport length of 13.05m, making it a very agile impactor. The return conveyor of the closed circuit can also swivel outside to be used as a stockpile conveyor for oversize.
As on all Keestrack equipment, maintenance has been reduced by design, using drive and return drums which are greased for life, is just one of the examples.
The diesel/hydraulic R2
version is driven by the new DEUTZ TCD 5.2 L4 engine, which is very efficient, powerful and clean. It applies to all EU Stage V and US EPA Tier 4 and is able to run on ecological biodiesel. The R2 is also available in ZERO drive version, which is full electric plug-in and has no combustion engine.
C7 3-Deck High-Capacity Classifier
Keestrack will also introduce the brand-new high-capacity 3-deck classifier to complete the product range for high capacity precision screening. The C7,

It applies to all EU Stage V and US EPA Tier 4 and is able to run on ecological biodiesel.
Keestrack’s B5, available in 3-drive versions: conventional diesel/hydraulic, hybrid plug-in and ZERO full electric-drive, is a compact heavy duty jaw crusher used for primary crushing in quarrying and mining applications. The hopper (5m³) with heavy duty folding hopper walls with hydraulic locking system, is easy to load by excavator and wheel loader. The vibrating feeder (2300 x 1000mm) automatically adjusts the feeding material to the crusher to ensure the load capacity of the jaw crusher is optimal (80%).
The long independent 2-deck pre-screen (2300 x 1000mm) ensures a high crushing capacity while reducing wear of the crusher. The pre-screened fraction(s) can go through the crusher bypass or can be separately stockpiled by the optional side conveyor.
The jaw crusher has a feed opening of 1110 x 750mm and a feed size up to 600mm. The stroke of the swing jaw can be adjusted for hard stone or recycling applications. To remove blockages the jaw movement is reversed.
The Closed Side Setting
(C.S.S.) is from 45 to 180mm, even on worn jaws. The hydraulic gap settings can be changed via a wedge system.
During operation the automatic wear recovery is active every 50 working hours, which guarantees a consistent quality of your end-product.
The wear recovery can also be set manually, if needed.
Maintenance and repairs are facilitated by the design of the B5 through accessible walkways and doors and panels on all sides of the machine. Also, the hydraulic sliding frame ensures good service access under the feeder and
scalping unit. The jaw crusher has 3-piece cheek plates which make replacements easier. Replacement of the jaws is fairly simple due to the easy accessible jaw plate top locking system. The B5 is equipped with a Drop off engine/gen-set compartment like many other Keestrack crushers. The engine can be placed besides the machine in less dusty and vibrant conditions. Maintenance is much easier when having the compartment placed at ground level. SP

Low-Value Wood Waste Generates Benefits For Fort St. James
With funding from the Forest Enhancement Society of BC, uneconomic residual fibre is being delivered from locations farther from town to BioNorth Energy, a joint venture partnership between Arrow Group of Companies, the Nak’azdli Development Corporation, the economic development arm of the Nak’azdli First Nation, and low-carbon infrastructure developer, Nexus PMG.
The project, which began in the fall of 2023 after an intense wildfire season, will finalize this winter, helping reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions from entering the atmosphere while also generating economic and social benefits for the community of Fort St. James.
“I want to commend the work of Arrow, NDC and Nexus PMG,” said Ravi Parmar, Minister of Forests. “By getting residual fibre out of our forests and into the hands of those who need it and can use it, they are creating jobs and revenue from what would have once been waste. During times of uncertainty, they show that by working
together, the forest sector and communities can have a major impact in ensuring forestry workers continue to have stable and steady jobs.”
The project focuses on grinding residual logging debris into feedstock for BioNorth Energy, a 40-mega-watt biomass power generation plant in Fort St. James.
“We have completed grinding projects within a 3-hour drive of BioNorth Energy. We grind approximately 200,000 cubic metres worth of slash piles every year that are used to produce clean energy,” explained Greg Kilba, Division Manager, Portable Wood Processing and Log Buyer at
Arrow. “Historically, many of these waste piles would have been outside of our economic zone and would have traditionally been burnt by industry and government.”
According to Chris McGourlick, RPF, Operations Manager with FESBC, the estimated fibre utilization from this project is equivalent to 4,635 truckloads. By grinding these slash piles that would otherwise be burnt, collaborators are taking action on climate change.
“The total greenhouse gas emissions avoided as a result of this work is 36,191 tonnes of avoided emissions, which is the equivalent of 7,817 ve-
hicles off the road,” added McGourlick.
The slash piles are now being utilized to create green energy in Fort St. James, adding value to the community by creating jobs for local community members and supporting primary services like the BioNorth facility, as well as secondary services such as tire shops and gas stations.
“Fibre utilization is more important than ever in our goal to reduce carbon emissions,” explained Tyler Dixon, Division Manager with Arrow in Fort St. James. “The grinding group directly has close to 30 high-paying fulltime positions, and BioNorth has around the same. This is money that stays in the communities we operate in and plays a large role in local economies. We also strive to support as many local busi-
nesses as possible for our service/parts needs, which is another way we are able to support our communities.”
As the Nak’azdli First Nation owns around 40% of BioNorth, they have invested a significant amount of money and effort to position its members and community to enjoy a more prosperous and sustainable future.
“We grind approximately 200,000 cubic metres worth of slash piles every year that are used to produce clean energy.”
“The opportunity to invest in a clean energy project within the traditional territory
of Nak’azdli Whut’en aligns with stewardship values while providing a long-term equity source that will benefit the community today and for future generations,” expressed John-Paul Wenger, Chief Executive Officer of NDC.
FESBC has played a crucial role in bridging the gap of being able to utilize more fibre with an incremental amount of money. The total project funding amounted to $1,867,000, which helped cover the cost of delivering the fibre to the facility.
As Kilba noted, each load delivered to the plant that has required additional funding represents 1.6 person-days of work that would have otherwise gone up in smoke.
“With less active logging in the area, we are seeing less fibre available. FESBC fund-

ing gives us the opportunity to expand our basket to areas that otherwise would not be economically viable,” added Dixon. “FESBC should be credited for playing a massive role in keeping BioNorth Energy’s yard full of fibre during some uncertain times in the industry.”
To traverse difficult access and improve delivery efficiency, the project utilized job specific trucks that are heavier and more robust to withstand gravel roads.
“This has resulted in fewer breakdowns and required less assistance to get to the challenging terrain that can be found on timber harvesting sites in the area,” explained Kilba.
Additionally, Arrow’s collaboration with local tenure holders has been key to the grinding and utilization of residual fibre.
“The local tenure holders have been incredible to deal with and show their commitment to fibre utilization,” shared Dixon. “Arrow played a large role in making this program a success, from hours spent viewing harvested blocks for waste fibre, costing projects out, meeting with tenure holders, and planning/executing the utilization of the fibre. Without our partners, this project would not be as successful as it has been.”
The collaboration between Arrow, NDC, the Ministry of Forests, BC Timber Sales and
local mills, all working together with BioNorth Energy, has created a very successful business model with incremental benefits for everyone involved.
“Creating direct and indirect employment and income opportunities within the facility and community will inevitably preserve and enrich the cultural heritage of the Nak’azdli people. Pride in ownership and success and determination will have a positive impact on current and future generations of Nak’azdli leaders,” added Antonio Madia, Director of Project Development with Arrow.

Genie Debuts New Boom Lifts
The Genie team is excited to introduce the all-new S-85 XC FE hybrid and S-85 XC E electric telescopic boom lifts.
The lifts, which are powered by Lithium-Ion batteries, feature Genie’s heavy-lifting and 4x4 drive capabilities in new hybrid and electric packages.
Four independent AC drive motors, 4-wheel drive and active oscillating axles enable operators to easily navigate rough terrain. Genie’s S-85 XC is commonly used for steel erection, rail and bridge construction, and in shipyards and refineries; offering the features and capabilities of the S-85 XC in
hybrid and electric configurations expands utilization to job sites that require quiet during day performance, or emissions free performance.
“These boom lifts are a complete upgrade, with thoughtful engineering and more than 80 quality improvements with the goal of keeping our machine in the field longer with fewer service intervals,” said Dominik Damm, Director, Product Management, Booms Portfolio.
Right-Sized LithiumIon Batteries Eliminate Maintenance and Reduce Costs
The FE and E models are both powered by 48-volt Lithium-Ion batteries, which is the smallest Lithium-Ion battery in the industry in the 85 ft / 27 m height class. These right-sized batteries, which are more cost effective, are made possible by efficiency improvements throughout the machine that lower energy consumption compared with competitors’ booms.
“Utilizing a 48-volt Lithium-Ion battery limits cost transfer to customers by keeping the battery small, but still is capable of supporting a full day’s work. LithiumIon batteries also do not require maintenance like FLA or AGM batteries, so there’s
Celebrating 40+ Years
no watering or replacement. The batteries also are smart, with software management systems to protect themselves from damage. Additionally, we’ve made service easier because the battery is only 48 volts. Specialized technician certifications are required for anyone working on a 60-volt or larger battery, so we’ve made service access easier by keeping the battery smaller,” Damm said.
Built to last, the battery is rated for extreme temperatures (from -22° F/-30° C to 122° F/50° C) and Genie is extending its warranty to 5 years to ensure customers feel confident in their purchasing decision.
“Genie’s Lithium-Ion solution has spent years in design and has been rigorously tested to ensure compliance with global standards,” said Damm, explaining that the intelligent Battery Management System software protects the battery throughout operation to ensure it won’t be damaged by any operation the machine is capable of.
Two battery sizes are available: standard size for the FE hybrid, or an XC battery for the electric E machine. The XC version of the 48-volt battery has a 7-hour rapid recharge, compared with 10-15 hours that other machines on the market require. The XC battery can be added as an option on the FE machine.
by supporting heavier lifting jobsite needs.
Additionally, Genie’s powerful Lift Power solution also is available in these new machines, expanding the performance benefits of these machines to even more jobs. These new models are the first-ever electrified boom lifts to offer a lithiumion powered AC generator welder-ready tool. Genie’s Lift Power welder-ready tool is capable of providing 7kW for the Australian market, and up to 12 kW for the North American market—the highest power output in the industry for welding applications. A 3kW power inverter, available globally, provides power to the platform to support power washers, drills, and other power tools.
Efficient Design, Quality Improvements Positively Impact Maintenance and Ownership Costs
“More than 80 design upgrades to the S-85 XC FE and S-85 XC E demonstrate Genie’s attention to continuous quality improvement with the intention of reducing overall cost of ownership,” Damm said.
Strong Heritage, Strong Future
Genie’s third generation hybrid system on the S-85 XC FE includes the 48-volt Lithium-Ion battery and 24 hp, DPF-free engine. The engine/generator combo provides enough power to run a full workday in electric mode, or a full work week on a single tank of fuel. It also allows for “dead-battery” operation: when the batteries are completely drained, the engine/ generator provides enough power to run any function. Rapid recharge of 4.5 hours is twice as fast as other systems on the market.
Performance Features Ensure High Rental Rates for Fleet Utilization
Beyond the flexibility hybrid and electrified equipment provides for working on a variety of jobsites, the dual capacity XC models mean operators can load the platform up to 1,000 lb / 454 kg for the majority of the lift’s range, and to 660 lb / 300 kg through the full envelope. This increases productivity
Here are just a few examples:
• Improved solid-state proximity switches have replaced limit switches. Switches are now fully sealed, preventing weather damage. And because there is just one part, moving parts that could cause fault codes have been reduced. Onboard LEDs on the new switches also will indicate their status for easy serviceability.
• From sharp steel edges to fasteners, Genie has made intentional design changes to improve durability and prevent rust.
• The machines’ cable tracks have been better organized, improving both serviceability and longevity. Durable separators are now found every second track, spacers separate hoses and cables, and hose
and cable wear has been tested to prevent overlapping and rubbing.
In addition, the IP67rated electric AC drive motors and maintenance-free Lithium-Ion battery are integral to reducing costs associated with ownership. The AC drive motors are fully sealed, preventing dust and water ingress, and they are brushless. Overall, there also are fewer hydraulic components, which reduces the chance for hydraulic leaks and spills, and many maintenance points are eliminated.
The 24 hp engine that delivers hybrid power for the FE model is DPF free, which means it does not require complex after treatment, reducing maintenance costs. This smaller engine also experiences less wear and tear, costing less to maintain.
Genie’s new Plus+1 control system has been updated to speed up troubleshooting. Damm explained: “The new LCD screen display helps technicians assess faults more quickly. For example, in the past it was a trial-and-error process for a technician to adjust hydraulic pressures on the secondary boom. Now, a test can be run that provides a visual display of the hydraulic pressures. The software automatically sets the pressure points between the desired high and low.” In addition, 50% of the required recalibration is automated for faster service and less down time.
The combination of industry-leading Lithium-Ion performance, features designed for productivity, and up to a 15% decrease in total cost of ownership means Genie’s S-85 XC FE and S-85 XC E boom lifts deliver high rental fleet utilization for our customers, and greater job site productivity for equipment operators.
The boom lifts will be available to customers in all markets beginning in early Q3. SP

Canadian Crane Service Adds New LTM 1160-5.2 To Fleet
DeSantis Crane Service Inc. is adding a Liebherr LTM 11605.2 mobile crane to its fleet.
The Canadian crane service provider will use the 180-tonne crane primarily for lifting prefabricated concrete parts and air conditioning systems. The scope of delivery includes lattice extensions that enable the crane to reach a maximum lifting height of 92 metres.
A Liebherr LTM 11605.2 mobile crane will join the fleet of Canadian company DeSantis Crane Service Inc. “The new 180-tonne crane perfectly closes the gap between our LTM 11305.1 and our LTM 1300-6.2. In future, it will mainly be used to lift prefabricated concrete parts and air conditioning systems and as a taxi crane,” explains Mark Martino, owner of DeSantis.
With the LTM 1160-5.2, DeSantis has another extremely efficient mobile crane in its fleet. Thanks to ECOmode and ECODrive technolo-
gies, fuel savings of up to ten per cent can be achieved – a clear advantage for the environment and economy. Various boom configurations enable flexible applications, while the VarioBallast system ensures maximum adaptability: whether high lifting capacities with a large ballast radius or constricted sites with the small radius – this crane is equipped for any challenge.
In addition to the lifting capacity, the lifting height of the 180-tonne crane also impressed the crane hire company. Alongside its 62-metre telescopic boom, DeSantis has also ordered three telescopic extensions, a hydraulic double folding jib and the 2.9-metre long assembly jib. This is ideal for the construction of wall elements.
In total, the LTM 1160-5.2 reaches a maximum lifting height of 92 metres. “We re-
towards the real requirements of everyday working life and will make work assignments even safer, more efficient and more comfortable in the future,” explains Michael Völker, Head of Product Management Crane at Palfinger EMEA GmbH.

Lode King Updates
Prestige Super-B Trailer
Farmers and commercial operators have trusted Lode King’s Prestige steel hopper-bottom trailers for over 24 years.
The Prestige line-up can be built in configurations to suit both the farming community, where yard space and field approaches are a factor, and commercial operators who need a longer, high-volume trailer that can be used in all North American jurisdictions.
With innovative updates like stainless steel gates, aluminum ladders, and enhanced lighting, these hoppers are built for durability and efficiency.
Ladder System
The first significant change we have implemented is the adoption of the same ladder system used on the Distinction series trailer. This system features a rectangular aluminum tubing structure with aluminum rungs. The ladder is slope-mounted to allow for easier access to the trailer. On the B-train, all four ladders will have the same design.
At the rear of the trailer, one notable change is the redesigned ladder system. A fold-down ladder has been introduced, which is the same as every ladder used in the Distinction series. This ladder features a low entry point and an angled configuration for improved accessibility and
ease of climbing. When not in use, the ladder folds away.
Landing Gear
The standard landing gear available on the Renown series trailer is the Holland Mark V landing gear. An optional feature to save on weight is the aluminum Jost landing gear with a galvanized insert on the lower leg.
Chute Gate
A significant enhancement to the Prestige series trailer is redesigning the chute gate. While maintaining its original dimensions of 16" × 24", the design has been upgraded from the previous chain and sprocket mechanism to a rack-and-pinion system supported by rollers. This new design also includes a replaceable Teflon wear strip. The chute gate is now fully constructed of stainless steel, and it matches the design used on the Distinction series trailer.
Paint Process
When the trailer enters the paint shop, it undergoes a phosphate wash to eliminate residual oils. The entire trailer receives a steel shot blast to seal all welds properly. The next step is the zinc coating, followed by a urethane primer. After these steps, the trailer undergoes an inspection before receiving its final topcoat. We offer various color options for the topcoat and customizable striping packages.
Optional Features
We now offer optional
lighting features to indicate or show the bottom of the hoppers in the dark. These include a set of lights to illuminate the bottom of the hoppers and an additional pair of interior lights inside the hoppers, providing a clear view of the load in low-light conditions.
Lighting
This year, one of the key updates is the transition back to rectangular indicator lights, replacing the previous oval center indicator lights. We have also improved the top-row lighting. The small two-inch lights have been replaced with larger, brighter oval lights. Additionally, we’ve moved to a three-
center light design, which is a high-mount brake light and is standard across all lighting packages available for this trailer. The turn signals are also integrated into the top rail. The intent behind this was to create a safer environment for vehicles following the trailer and to aid in reducing the risk of rear-end collisions.
On the bottom rail, we’ve introduced an aluminum box cover to house the lights, replacing the previous steel bolster for a cleaner and more durable solution. For added security, an optional anti-theft ring is available to replace the standard rubber gasket or insert. This feature is offered for both the top and
bottom lights.
Fenders
At the rear of the lead trailer, we have updated the fender mounts. The previous tube-style mount, prone to collecting rocks and stone chipping, has been replaced. In its place, we now use a stainless-steel mounting bracket that attaches to a stub shaft–a standard feature on all our half-round fenders. The flat aluminum fender remains available as a fender option, while the half-round fenders are in black poly material or stainless steel.
Between the second and third axle is a stainless-steel fender mount. Along with the stainless-steel fender mount,
an aluminum close-out has been added to prevent debris from flowing between the two fenders. New for this year is the addition of a mud flap on the lead and second axle, again to minimize debris flying around on the trailer.
Suspension & Wheel Options
We offer several different Hendrickson Intraax suspensions. Standard on all Prestige hopper trailers is the Henrickson Intraxx 23K Suspension. The Hendrickson TIREMAAX Pro Inflation System is an excellent option for improved tire life. This system ensures all tires remain at a consistent pressure.
Rare Vintage Wheels Roll Into Alberta Museums
Lovers of historic vehicles are in for a treat as two Alberta museums reveal their latest donations - a horse-drawn steampowered fire engine and a downright regal ride.
The Remington Carriage Museum in Cardston is now home to a 1914 Waterous Steam Fire Pumper, which was donated by a local Calgary collector. Almost no others of its kind have remained intact. Adding to its rarity, the engine remains in fully functional condition.
The firefighting machine was built more than a century ago and spent some of its early years in Québec. It has since been painstakingly restored and donated to the museum where another smaller one like it is already housed.
Limo fit for a king
Meanwhile, a new addition to the Reynolds Museum collection in Wetaskiwin is getting a royal welcome –a 1939 McLaughlin Buick Royal Tour car. The custom-
made stretch convertible has carried every British monarch in their respective tours of Canada since the late 1930s.
Donated by Byron Reynolds, the vehicle was one of two built by General Motors in Ontario for use by King George VI and Queen Elizabeth II as they toured Canada in 1939.
It was used by Prince Charles and Princess Diana for the opening of Expo ’86 in Vancouver and by Queen Elizabeth II for the opening of the Commonwealth Games in Victoria in 1994.
Major additions to the collection
Both donations represent a significant addition to the provincial museum collection and carry stories of their use and restoration throughout
the 20th century. Furthermore, both vehicles were originally made in Canada, a trait that sets them apart from their U.S. counterparts and adds to their uniqueness.
“Albertans value the stories of our shared past and the artifacts that help bring those stories to life,” stated Tanya Fir, Minister of Arts, Culture and Status of Women.
“As our museum collections grow, so does the depth of our understanding of that past.”
“It is thrilling for the Reynolds and Remington to be the recipient of such amazing donations,” said Noel Ratch, Director, Reynolds Museum.
“These vehicles are each truly one of a kind and we thank the donors who made these historical treasures available for everyone to enjoy.
I invite all Albertans to visit our museums to learn more about these, and many other, unique Alberta stories.”
Alberta’s government proudly owns and operates 20 museums and heritage sites as well as the Provincial Archives. Last year, Alberta’s government dedicated more than $52 million to the heritage sector to ensure Alberta’s rich history continues to be protected, promoted and celebrated.
The 1914 Waterous Steam Fire Pumper at the Remington Carriage Museum.
Quick facts
The 1939 McLaughlin Buick was one of two built in Canada.
Built on a Buick limousine chassis, it includes a four-door convertible body, custom wood-grain dash and interior veneered moldings, tall canvas convertible top to accommodate ceremonial headgear, an electrically operated divider window, a dictograph with dash and signal light so riders in back and front can communicate, the Royal Crest, Shield and Standard, and a sterling silver
vanity kit with co-ordinated umbrellas.
The Waterous Steam Fire Pumper was built around 1913 in Brantford, Ontario, and was bought second-hand by the Township of Pointeaux-Trembles, Québec in 1917.
It was purchased by a Calgary collector in 1997 and was restored by a Michigan restorer. At that time, it was found to still be in working condition with no leaks. It includes 90 per cent original material with most of the restoration being cosmetic. Paint detailing was done based on
uncovered paint layers found during the restoration process and archival photos of the engine during its use in Québec.
The Waterous Steam Fire Pumper is currently on display at the Remington Carriage Museum.
The Royal Tour car can be viewed at the Reynolds Museum as part of the behindthe-scenes tour program each summer.
The Reynolds Museum and the Remington Carriage Museum are open Tuesday through Sunday. SP

Tarp Hood Vents
Another enhancement is the addition of tarp hood vents, identical to those used on all Distinction Series trailers. Each tarp hood features a vent at both the front and rear to stay up and out of the way. This design eliminates the need for sidewall vents. On the top of the trailer, a vent is mounted at the rear, directly above the lights.
Airlines
Another improvement is in the catwalk between the two trailers. The airlines now run beneath the trailer, eliminating the tripping hazard that could be a possibility in the walkway.
Fifth Wheel
The fifth wheel has been upgraded to a Holland boltin design, allowing for easier maintenance and replacement. If an issue arises, the fifth wheel can be easily re-
moved and replaced by simply unbolting it, installing a new one, and resuming operations with minimal downtime.
Trailer Tarps
The tarps available across the entire Prestige line are supplied by Michels. We also offer optional features for convenience, including the option of a power tarp for effortless opening and closing, as well as a chute opener. SP

Verne Achieves Hydrogen Storage Milestone
Verne successfully demonstrated the first cryo-compressed hydrogen (CcH2) truck in the world.
During the testing in late 2024, Verne drove the truck hundreds of miles and conducted multiple refueling events with Verne’s novel CcH2 filling equipment. The test validated the density and dormancy benefits of CcH2 and the reliability and durability of the system under realworld operating conditions. These test results confirm the advantages of CcH2 relative to existing hydrogen storage methods, preparing Verne to commercialize the technology in various markets, beginning with hydrogen distribution.
Verne’s breakthrough cryo-compressed hydrogen technology is the most efficient method of storing and distributing hydrogen. CcH2 enables 33% greater hydrogen storage density than liquid hydrogen and 87% greater density than traditional 700 bar compressed hydrogen.
Additionally, CcH2 has lower densification costs and experiences less hydrogen boil-off losses relative to liquid hydrogen. Verne estimates that these improvements enable 40% cheaper hydrogen distribution costs relative to existing technologies.
During the demonstration in late 2024, Verne validated both the storage and fueling systems under relevant operating conditions, including operation of the truck on rugged off-road terrain. This is an important step towards commercialization of Verne’s CcH2 technology. Following this successful technical demonstration, Verne will conduct hydrogen distribution pilots with key customers before scaling up to full commercial hydrogen distribution operations.
One early market for hydrogen distribution is replac-
ing diesel generators, delivering hydrogen to operate zero-emission hydrogen-topower generators. Customers from a variety of sectors are seeking access to clean power and are not currently being served by the grid or by existing hydrogen distribution technologies. The efficiency and low-cost of CcH2 distribution make it feasible to deliver affordable clean energy anywhere without relying on interconnection to the grid. Verne has received interest from customers in construction, warehouses, ports, EV charging and remote events. Beyond commercializing the technology for CcH2 distribution, Verne will pursue onboard storage for Class 8 trucks and other heavy-duty vehicles.
“This demonstration is an important step forward for CcH2 and proves the strong technical foundation we’ve
built at Verne,” said Ted McKlveen, Co-founder & CEO of Verne. “Across sectors, decarbonization efforts are being hindered by limited access to clean energy and zero-emission alternatives that meet operational standards. CcH2 can serve these customers and replace fossil fuels in some of the most demanding, most essential sectors of the economy.”
Since its founding in 2020, Verne has made rapid progress to develop and commercialize CcH2. In 2022, Verne initiated a project funded by ARPA-E to develop energyefficient cryo-compression technology. In 2023, Verne demonstrated a world-record 29 kg storage tank at Lawrence Livermore National
Laboratory, validating the CcH2 storage system in a stationary environment.
Verne has also collaborated with key partners to develop the full technology ecosystem of CcH2, including coupling provider ARTA, cryopump provider Cryostar, refueling hose provider Lifeguard Technologies, and flow meter provider Rheonik. Building on this successful 2024 demonstration, which was supported by Alberta Innovates and Diesel Tech Industries, Verne will progress to pilots with these partners and leading commercial customers in 2025.
About Verne Verne was founded in 2020 to decarbonize the most
demanding sectors of the economy. Verne’s platform unlocks zero-emission operations in sectors including construction, warehouses, ports, EV charging and remote events. Verne is financially supported by leading commercial entities, including Trucks Venture Capital, Collaborative Fund, Amazon’s Climate Pledge Fund, NextEra Energy Resources, United Airlines Ventures Sustainable Flight Fund, Caterpillar VC, and Newlab. Verne is also supported by Breakthrough Energy Fellows, the Department of Energy’s ARPA-E, The U.S. Army, Alberta Innovates and other organizations. SP

cal factor. Partnerships between carriers, manufacturers, and distributors enhance operational efficiency and reduce costs. For businesses that embrace this networked approach, the results are measurable: lower lead times, reduced waste, and greater customer satisfaction.
Navigating the Cross-Border Supply Chain
Trade between the U.S., Canada, and Mexico is a significant driver of economic growth, but navigating these borders comes with its own
set of challenges. Regulatory compliance, customs requirements, and varying infrastructure capabilities can create bottlenecks for even the most well-planned supply chains. Potential tariffs could further complicate cross-border supply chains by increasing costs and creating additional regulatory hurdles.
To overcome these obstacles, businesses must prioritize robust cross-border strategies. This includes staying ahead of regulatory changes, investing in infrastructure that supports
seamless transitions, and cultivating partnerships that offer local expertise in each region.
Building the Future Together
The supply chain challenges of today are an opportunity to build a stronger, more integrated North American logistics network. Businesses that focus on resilience, collaboration, and innovation will be best positioned to thrive in this dynamic environment. SP

A TRUCKER’S TALE
The Last Hoorah
Each morning at daylight, seven days a week, Army ordinance crews (mine sweepers) would clear Highway 1 before traffic was allowed onto the roadway.
I was usually waiting for our gate to open when the mine sweepers went by our camp, as I made the first part of my 150-mile round trip run for supplies in Danang. The worst part of driving one of the first vehicles on the road each day was the sight of the dead bodies laid in the middle of the road at each village, hamlet, or town. Depending how many Viet Cong, or suspected Viet Cong and sympathizers, were killed the previous night, the South Vietnamese Army (ARVN) soldiers placed the dead in the middle of the road leading into each village. There might be one body, or a pile of bodies placed on top of each other. It was necessary to slow down to drive around the bodies. I learned this practice was to make the statement of what would happen to anyone who aided the enemy. The sights of those bodies were a helluva way to start each day. I cannot say I ever got used to it, but the fre-
quency caused me to view the practice as just another one of the terrible things that happened in that screwed-up war in Southeast Asia.
The final trucking story from my military service in Vietnam was certainly one to remember. Our detachment (of 12) had one last night at the Army camp south of Quang Tri, and if you will remember, this was the location where we had been enjoying the hot meals, complements of those Army officers. We worked from five in the morning, in alternating rain showers and bright sunlight, at close to 110 degrees, until the road closed at dusk. We showered and then had our last dinner with the Army officers. The officers bought us numerous beers to wish us farewell. Arriving back to our “hooch,” we then thought it only fitting to celebrate leaving this country by having a few beers (our last purchased from the little beer girls) while we rehashed some of our “in country” war

stories. We had more beers, and the war stories probably contained many lies, as we continued celebrating.
We got a little more than carried away and our celebration lasted the entire night. Just about daylight, someone hollered, “Damn, look at Willie!” (You might remember that Willie was the one who used a dump truck for a completely different use other than hauling sand or dirt.) We gathered by Willie’s bed as he lay flat on his back. By the looks of it, he had, for quite a long while, been placing his empty beer cans on his chest, and the large number of cans indicated that several others had added their own empties. He was bare-chested, owing to being in hotter-than-hell Vietnam, and his entire chest, stomach, and parts of his thighs were covered by empty cans.
We began applauding Willie’s efforts when the door of our hooch opened. Our battalion’s commanding officer strode-in, followed closely by his executive officer, and then more officers than I could count. We just knew our CO had come to thank us for completing this road project on time, and although I don’t remember his exact words after stopping at
the foot of Willie’s bunk, I do remember his words as being far from complimentary.
To Willie’s credit, and to his sense of beer-can-balance, (or maybe because he was too inebriated to get up) he did not move and not a single beer can fell from where each had been placed.
I smile every time I remember the look on the CO’s face as he stood at the foot of Willie’s bunk as he looked down at all those empty beer cans perched on Willie’s upper body. I could swear his suppressed grin said, “Damn, I wish I could do that!”
If I had been sober enough to find my camera, I’m sure I would still be embarrassing Willie today. What a great last memory to carry away from South Vietnam. Truthfully, Willie’s story was just one of the many memories I took with me.

Canada Cartage has signed an agreement to acquire Walmart Fleet ULC. Headquartered in Mississauga, Ontario, Walmart Fleet transports
Canada Cartage, one of North America’s largest providers of transportation and logistics services, was chosen by Walmart Canada to
acquire its fleet business so it can focus on its ambitious growth strategy of expanding its stores and supply chain across Canada. This acquisition allows Canada Cartage, the country’s largest provider of dedicated fleet services, to strengthen its dedicated fleet capabilities and accelerate its growth in Canada.
“Our acquisition of Walmart Fleet reflects our commitment to expanding our network and bringing dedicated fleet transportation solutions to more customers across Canada,” said Scott Lane, President, Canada Cartage. “This move positions us for long-term growth while providing the talented employees joining us from Walmart Fleet with more opportunities to develop longterm careers and thrive in a fleet-focused environment.”
Canada Cartage will operate the fleet as a dedicated operation – ensuring business continuity for Walmart Canada while building on its reputation as a trusted provider in the dedicated transportation industry. For the retailer, the
divestiture reflects a strategic focus on its future growth plans in Canada, as it further expands across the country to better serve its customers.
“This decision is part of our broader growth ambitions and strategy to focus on what we do best: delivering value to our customers,” said Matt Kelly, Vice President, Supply Chain, Walmart Canada. “We are confident fleet employees will benefit greatly from Canada Cartage’s leadership. They’re very well-respected, and we know their culture is the right fit for fleet employees and our business.”
This acquisition underscores both Canada Cartage and Walmart Canada’s commitment to long-term growth in Canada, and positions both companies for sustained success in an evolving market.
Subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, the transaction to acquire Walmart Fleet ULC is expected to close in the coming weeks. SP

Our original orders for that morning were to pack up and leave Quang Tri, and to take all our equipment back to our base camp. To our dismay, we realized just how badly we had screwed-up (even though we all blamed Willie) when we were ordered to “go out there and act like it is just another workday.” Our punishment, even though none of us were anywhere close to sober, was to operate our heavy equipment in the 110° F to 115° F temperatures.
Mostly all I remember was sweating and wanting to hurl all morning, and we were told that we somehow had messed up some of the work we had previously completed. But orders being orders, we did our best! In the early afternoon, probably timed to coincide with when everyone was in reach of sobriety, we received the word to head ‘em up, move ‘em out, and that we could leave to go back to Camp Haines.
We arrived back to the camp to find our 850 fellow Seabees celebrating the awesomeness of leaving Vietnam
the next day. They were having such a good time because the CO hadn’t found them inebriated at daybreak that morning. They had spent the day packing all their belongings, in addition to various types of contraband, such as M-16s, Colt 45s, bayonets, or anything else they could find, into duffle bags or footlockers. We 12, now sober but well hung over, were told that we had already celebrated, and we needed to use what time we had left “in country” to pack our own duffle bags. Our small detachment was required to turn in our Colt 45s and M-16s as soon as we returned to our camp. Sadly, we didn’t get to hide these contraband items in our duffle bags.
Early the next morning, we boarded Boeing CH-47 helicopters at Camp Evans, the Army base beside our Camp Haines, and we headed to Danang for our flight home to the Good Ole USA. SP
