Best Answer

Yes. You could even be employed by a Canadian motor carrier, if you so wished. Canadian Class 1 licenced drivers can drive for US motor carriers, as can Mexicans with their equivalent licence to a Class A CDL.

If you're going into Canada, bring your passport with you. If you have a spread axle trailer, don't go into any province other than Ontario.

Can you drive for a Canadian trucking company with a us cdl?

No, you cannot. Canada is part of the ICC, and shares commercial driver information with the American FMCSA. If you try obtaining a US licence while possessing a Canadian one, or vice versa, they'll find out about it. By the way, "CDL" is a term exclusive to the US.. Canada uses a different system. Class 1 is the equivalent to a Class A CDL, Class 2 is equivalent to a Class B, and I believe Class 3 is for buses and such.
