 You will get good information from the Ministry. 
  
 Anyone considering attending any trucking school in the province of 
 Ontario should do themselves a favour and call the Ministry at the above 
 numbers, ask to speak with an Investigator and ask them the following 
 questions: ( 
  
 1) Is school registered with the Ministry? 
 2) Is the course you are considering attending registered? 
 3) How many hours of training are registered for this course? 
 4) Have you received any complaints about this school? 
 5) What was the nature of those complaints?
