The popular ride-hailing app Uber is expanding across the entire Halifax municipality, bringing excitement from rural business owners, but also questions on when rides will be available and what drivers are earning.
A new ride-hailing app promising fair pay to drivers is launching today, starting in the Toronto area, to take on Uber and Lyft. The company believes it will attract drivers by paying them 100 per cent of fares and charging only a membership fee to work for the service.
Dozens of ride-share and food delivery drivers in Toronto staged a strike Wednesday, calling for more fair pay and better treatment after a recent report found that what some drivers make falls well below Ontario's minimum wage.
