angryMontrealeron Taxi drivers swarm downtown Toronto in protest of Uber

Seriously. Deal with it

angryMontrealeron Montreal cracks down on UberX; seizes 40 cars and fines drivers

It baffles me how very little cabs accept credit cards in the city, and even less with an electronic POS. many of them still use paper based forms (if at all) and they'll almost always be rude about it and demand an extra $2-3 on the fare.

Hailo was quite popular in Montreal for a while until Uber launched and drove them out of business. As far as i recall they shut down all of their North American operations to focus on EU. Wonder how that's going. I quite liked them, but I prefer UberX any day
