The floor is yours.  \nClaudia Boucher (As an Individual): Good morning.  \nMy name is Claudia Boucher. I'm here as a survivor of an acci‐ dent involving a heavy truck in September 2025. Given the fact that no one knows my story, I'll share it with you.  \nI am the mother of three children. I'm in the active part of my life, and I was supposed to go back to work full time the week after my accident. I was still on maternity leave at the time.  \nI was on a country road between Laurier-Station and Sainte‑Croix, which is in the Lotbinière RCM, in the suburbs of Lévis, near Quebec City. I was stopped behind a school bus.  \nThat's a pretty busy road, but it was a nice day. It was 25°C. I was driving and listening to the radio.

When I turned around, I saw that I had been rammed by a 53-foot Safex truck and that I had rammed the school bus, of course.  \nAt the time, I was in a state of shock. There was glass every‐ where. Everything that had just happened wasn't really clear to me. A gentleman came to help me, and the truck driver came to see me, with his phone in his hand. He asked me if I wanted water, and he handed me a bottle of water. The gentleman who came to assist me asked the truck driver why he hadn't seen us. The bus was stopped, its flashing lights were on and the stop signal arms were extended. A young person was crossing in front of the bus at the time. He jumped to avoid getting hit by the bus that moved forward after the collision. His sister was late, so she was still in the house.
