In the meantime, the taxi group had been seeking a temporary suspension of ride-hailing services while it pursues a judicial review, which could easily take months. "The launch of Uber and Lyft in Vancouver did not arrive unannounced, there's been extensive study and consultation over the past seven years," the judge said in her oral reasons.
“You know, there's a lot of families and children that rely and are dependent on this taxi industry – not just in Vancouver, but in British Columbia, and they rely on a level playing field," she added. The judge said the affidavits claiming losses were anecdotal, making the evidence frail, noting “we live in a market economy … competition is the norm.”Faced with the prospect of the courts ordering their services suspended, potentially for months, Uber and Lyft were relieved to have a Supreme Court justice reiterate the PTB’s authority.
People want to save money, especially in this horrible economy, so they use the lowest cost transportation which is ride sharing. Good for the judge for not adding more regulations and banning this awesome service.
