There has been a several attempts by Olivia Chow, MP (the official opposition transport critic) to introduce Bill C-344 a Private Member’s Bill (PMB) that she introduced in the House of Commons in the fall of 2011, in it she is asking to amend the Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Which in short is a bill that would make sideguards mandatory on all heavy trucks. Recently Olivia Chow in question period asked: "How Many More Deaths Before Sideguards are Mandated?".
