Food for truckers: Community rallies behind those working to keep supply lines open
REDCLIFF AB- Truck drivers on the long haul along the Trans Canada Highway near Redcliff know it by name, because its’ name embodies their very way of life. Trukkers.
Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, there has been increased pressure to stock the shelves and keep the supply lines open.
In Redcliff, truck drivers from across Canada are getting a token of appreciation, a free meal at Trukkers Restaurant thanks to donations from the community.
It all started after a Redcliff man walked into the restaurant on March 21. He handed over $100 and asked if he could buy meals for truck drivers.
