Congratulations to Tim Livingstone, Fleet and Facilities Manager at KTG, on receiving the NATMI Subject Matter Expert Award at the annual Safety & Security Meeting in Oklahoma City.

Tim was recognized as a Subject Matter Expert for helping adapt NATMI’s maintenance and equipment director program for Canadian carriers. Working with his peers, he chaired the Maintenance Council to shape the program and revise the exam for Canadian standards and regulations.

Congratulations, Tim. Thank you for representing KTG and helping move maintenance leadership forward at KTG and in the Canadian trucking industry.

We’re excited to congratulate Eugenia Churilov, our Director of Safety, Compliance and Security, for being named the 2026 Safety Professional of the Year!

Eugenia’s work and perspective are truly valued at KTG and throughout the transportation industry. She has dedicated herself to improving driver safety through education and compliance, leading as Chair of the NATMI Canadian Curriculum Committee and the Toronto Regional Fleet Safety Council. Her deep understanding of safety regulations and her approachable style have helped make our companies some of the safest in North America.

We’re proud to see Eugenia wear the Burgundy Blazer, showing that she is among a small group of respected transportation safety leaders. Congratulations to Eugenia for being recognized for her ongoing dedication to safety at KTG and throughout the trucking industry!

The Globe and Mail has done excellent work telling the story of the Driver Inc. scheme that has been a plague on the Canadian trucking industry for years. By misclassifying the employment status of drivers, these predatory companies and owners have robbed their staff of basic employment protections, old-age pension payments, workers' compensation and taxes from the pockets of Canadians. They have also endangered our roads by cutting costs in maintenance, safety, and training.
