"the same company" was actually Canadian National Railways. Husband's head office was in London Ontario. Many smaller CN transport companies were folded into Husband including Toronto-Peterborough Transport, Scobie's Transport and Hoar Transport. Husband was merged with OVERNITE Transport of Quebec and it was renamed "Husband-Overnite" It held wide Quebec & Maritime Authorities. The full load " Class C" division was Cronin Transport Ltd. of Dublin Ont. All the CN trucking companies were "privatized" under the name Transport Route Canada. Route Canada, of course, went bankrupt in a very short time.
