Much different.
Arrow 1 and Arrow 2 are widely used BC, Arrow transport has a fairly large presence in both BC and Alberta.
Yep. I've seen a **** ton of Icom amd Kenwood ham mobiles used by the trucking industry.
They was them because they are 'cheap'and they can 'dial what ever they want'
Yep, there is little distinction between local/provincial/federal/public safety users in Canada in the VHF and UHF bands. Commercial users can be found anywhere between 138-144MHz, 148-175Mhz 403-430MHz and 440-470MHz(RTK users are generally assigned about a dozen simplex frequencies between 440.000-440.600MHz and 445.0000-445.6000MHz)
When major events take place, voice users are quite frequently given temporary assignments on any frequency between 440-450MHz. The Edmonton Indy race as an example, back in the day made extensive use of the ham band. ISED consulted with the ham community to try and ensure there was little conflict with existing use of the ham band, but made it clear, the LMR users had priority, as hams are a secondary user.
