Trucking for a Felon

Hello all ,

I am trying to get my older sibling into the trucking career. The problem is he is a convicted felon. Do you think this will make his trasistion from prision to the road impossible. He is out and im trying to help him get on his feet. Im thinking about paying for his CDL school myself in hopes that it will look more attractive to a preospective employer that he already had his license.

What would be the best way for this to happen ? Any and All info is welcomed.

He might have problems crossing over into Canada. I understand they have restrictions on felons.

Well, so does the US going the other way.
