Trafficking in Canada
About the TruckSTOP Campaign Human trafficking is a serious crime and a violation of human rights. The TruckSTOP Campaign is an awareness initiative that provides frequent travelers with the knowledge they need to identify suspected cases of human trafficking and alert law enforcement. Truck drivers and frequent travelers are the “eyes of the road” and the first line of defense against human trafficking.
LISTEN to an MP3 of “WATCH for the Signs,” the TruckSTOP audio documentary on human trafficking in Canada. The TruckSTOP Campaign is funded in part by Public Safety Canada. |
