## Resource

In celebration of Canada Day – and in advance of Independence Day in the U.S.A. – we’re embracing our similarities and differences with the help of a man who’s developed quite a following doing just that online. Joseph DeBenedictis explains how he went from working for the Buffalo Bills, Buffalo Sabres and Kelsea Ballerini to comparing food offerings in the U.S. and Canada on YouTube for tens of thousands of followers. Hey, Joseph - what’s it gonna take to make poutine a regular menu item at American restaurants? https://www.youtube.com/@JosephD Join or renew with the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association and use code PODCAST25 for a discounted membership: https://www.ooida.com/membership/ Tired of watching your rights eroded: https://fightingfortruckers.com/ Subscribe for FREE to Land Line Magazine (online or print): https://landline.media/subscribe/
