Fleet Award went to Saskatche- wan’s Q-Line Trucking, and round- ing out the fleet awards was Bison Transport, which took the Top Large Fleet Award.
The Achievement of Excellence Awards are broken down into five categories to highlight leaders in specific HR areas. The recipient of the Workplace Culture Award was Canada Cartage. Ryder Canada Sup- ply Chain Solutions took home the Award for Workplace Diversity. The recipient of HR Innovation Award was Arrow Transportation Systems. The Employee Engagement Award went to Sutco Transportation Spe- cialists, and taking home the Award for Training and Skills Development was Caron Transportation Systems.
The night’s most anticipated award – the HR Leader of the Year Award – was presented to Challenger Motor Freight’s Geoff Topping. Top- ping is an industry veteran, and cur- rently the vice-president of human resources at Challenger. He started his career in the trucking industry as an owner-operator.

“I’m not usually speechless, but wow,” said Topping upon accepting the award. “Thank you to Trucking HR Canada, and all my team at Chal- lenger. And thank you to our indus- try. We always say it’s a people indus- try and it really is. I’m sure there’s lots of equipment and things, but when you take it all away, it’s really about people. The trucking indus- try has the best bunch of people you could possibly get. If you look around the room today, we’re all friends and competitors and we all share best practices with each other. We should all be proud of this industry. I love this industry, it’s been great to me, and thanks so much.”
Trucking HR Canada’s CEO Angela Splinter added: “We are honored to highlight organizations who work year-round to provide great work- places for all their employees. And, with fleets under pressure to attract and recruit workers, being a Top Fleet Employer certainly helps these fleets stand out from the crowd.”
Applications for the Top Fleet Employers Program open Oct. 15, and any Canadian fleet is eligible to apply. TN
