Hans Kruse recently passed from this life and we remember him as the driver literally and figuratively for HK trucking in Merritt BC. And the trucking magnet for this little place took advantage of deregulation in a 1980s that saw trucking deregulated in BC, licenses were given out but tariffs or rates we’re wide open for competition.
High times
Entrepreneurship was the catchy of the day. Many people held down a full-time job in a mine or a mill + yet there was a Proprietoratory drive that saw small business on the part-time level as well as a small mom and pops like HK struggle to succeed. More than extra money and the less than economies of scale. But individualism had its way,
However, not without casualties. We won’t go into that right at this point 😞 But you know in life that one’s freedom is often somebody else’s peril.
Good luck no passing in the saints lane.
