Ottawans don’t want Uber, councillor says

Taylor urges Queen’s Park to give cities more “teeth” in dealing with ride-sharing services

“I’m happy to bring Uber in, but Uber has to be willing to be brought in. To date, in every city that they’ve visited, Uber has adopted the same – regardless of what those city’s regulations were – Uber has adopted the same philosophy, which is we are not changing our business model, we are not adapting at all to local concerns.” — COUN. MARK TAYLOR, CHAIR OF OTTAWA’S COMMUNITY AND PROTECTIVE SERVICES COMMITTEE
