Thousands of drivers on strike on Valentine's Day
BY The Connect News, Feb 14, 2024 3:00 PM - REPORT AN ERROR
The organization that leads them in Canada, Rider Fair Two, says that its members here in Toronto, Vancouver and Winnipeg are joining the strike.
Thousands of Uber and Lyft drivers in countries like Canada, USA and UK are going on a one-day strike today on Valentine's Day.
The organization that leads them in Canada, Rider Fair Two, says that its members here in Toronto, Vancouver and Winnipeg are joining the strike.
According to Rider Fair Two, Uber and Lyft drivers are underpaid. Many ride share drivers in Toronto are making just $6.37 an hour, while Ontario's minimum wage is $16.55 an hour.
However, Ober says that he does not expect the strike to have much impact on Valentine's Day. This is because most drivers are satisfied.
