Every year, the Alberta Motor Transport Association (AMTA) recognizes individuals outstanding in the field of commercial transportation for their contributions to the Association, safety, membership and the motoring public.

The Association extends the utmost congratulations to the following individuals:

• Associate Trades Award: Kevin Hamilton, Airdrie Registry
• Historical Award: Paul Rubak, author of Big Wheels Across the Prairies
• Safety Person of the Year Award: Mark Dundas, Encore Trucking & Transport Ltd.
• Driver of the Year: Leonard Wurz, Gateway Carriers Ltd.

“While we were unable to hold our traditional Awards Banquet in 2020, I am so proud to celebrate the achievements of these award winners,” says AMTA President Chris Nash. “Our award recipients are individuals who go above and beyond in the name of safety for the commercial transportation industry and the motoring public.”

In lieu of the 2020 Awards Banquet, award recipients will be thanked via personal phone calls with Nash, award packages and a social media campaign.
These awards wouldn’t be possible without our sponsors, GroupHEALTH, Highstreet Insurance Group, Volvo Trucks Canada and BFL Insurance.
