This could be weeks while the driver has no income. Driver safety and benefits if a driver is injured: “Right now, if a driver is assaulted by a fare or hurt in an accident, they earn nothing while they are off of work.We want access to all of the data about our trips.”

Drivers do not see what the customer paid, only what the driver gets paid. Access to data: “Only Uber sees all the information about a ride.There is no process to discuss or find out what happened. Unfair deactivation:“If Uber decides to deactivate you, you are fired.Outlining the group’s demands, Ejaz says that they are not limited to compensation: If I work an eight hour day, I am lucky to make $50.” Now, we are lucky to make $100 a day and half of that goes to expenses.

“Uber came first to Toronto’s limousine drivers,” Ejaz explains, “and at the start, we could make $200 a day after exenses. Organizer Muhammad Ejaz Butt says the demands being made by the group, which is supported logistically and financially by the Ontario Federation of Labour and the Food and Commercial Workers Union, are both reasonable and overdue. Limo/Uber Black driver and union organizer Muhammad Ejaz Butt is a key figure in Toronto’s September 28th UBERSTRIKE protest. The building has a large parking lot where cars are asked to gather no streets are expected to be blocked as a result of the protest. The “UBERSTRIKE” protest is scheduled for 10:30am in the parking lot of Uber Canada’s head office at 1980 Matheson Boulevard East, Unit A. Members of the taxi industry note that the regulatory framework Uber drivers are asking for is essentially the system that existed before Toronto re-wrote its by-law in 2016. Drivers are being asked to log off of their apps, and passengers are being asked to take a taxi, a shuttle or a bus on “APPS OFF” day around the globe. Uber and Lyft drivers in Toronto are organizing to support the September 28 th international strike for better working conditions.
