The National Truck Equipment Association (NTEA) opened a Canadian government relations office in Ottawa, Canada. The office is the association’s first location in Canada.
“Around the world, governments have begun to recognize the economic benefits associated with global truck platforms, harmonized safety regulations and emissions standards for commercial vehicles,” says Steve Carey, NTEA executive director, in a press release. “Having a second government relations office further strengthens the NTEA’s ability to influence and respond to regulations and legislation impacting the North American market.”
The Ottawa office works under the direction of Mike Kastner, NTEA managing director, who leads the NTEA’s government relations efforts in Washington, D.C.
