British Columbians will get their first glimpse at a possible future for ride-booking service Uber in September, when the government says it will unveil a discussion paper.
Peter Fassbender, the cabinet minister who is reviewing whether to allow Uber to operate in B.C., said Wednesday the government is almost finished gathering comment from the public, taxi industry, insurance industry and Uber.
“We will be putting out a discussion document that will highlight what we’ve heard and what we think we should be looking at in the province of British Columbia to have a made-in-B.C. solution,” said Fassbender. Public safety, fair treatment for the conventional taxi industry and insurance concerns will be addressed, he said.
