Saint John council has taken the next step on allowing ride sharing services to operate in the city.
Councillor Greg Norton put forward a motion at Monday evening’s meeting requesting city staff work on a bylaw that would allow the services to finally enter the market.
Norton has long pushed council to allow ride-sharing services to operate in the city, but it has continually been delayed. Now, staff has the go ahead to draft a bylaw which will come before council this fall.
Ride-hailing apps like Uber and Lyft have received criticism for allegations of worker abuse and circumventing labour laws. However, Norton says passing the legislation is not about courting the tech giants, so much as opening more opportunities for local entrepreneurs.
