Windsor Councillor Had His Window Smashed After Voting to Allow Uber

According to a new report from the National Post, a rock was thrown through the windows of Windsor Councillor John Elliott.
On Monday, city council officially voted to allow Uber to legally operate in the city. On early Wednesday morning, someone smashed a rock through Elliott’s window. Elliott believes that the act was taken because of his vote to allow Uber in the town.
“After that meeting Monday, as contentious as it was, I think it had something to do with that. I didn’t catch the person so I can’t be sure, but I’ve been upset ever since. They didn’t intimidate me. They made me mad. But I have to keep a controlled head.”
Unifor Local 195 VP John Toth, who represents more than 320 Veteran Cab drivers, angrily dismissed the accusation. The city’s police department is still investigating the issue.

This is exactly why we need Uber…. These taxi drivers are mostly aggressive, rude and they think they are the only game in town. The fear of competition is a wake up call to these gentlemen that they need to do better.
The article clearly states they absolutely no idea who did this, so why are you blaming and demonizing the taxi industry?
And if you’re not, then could please explain why your comment begins with “This is exactly why…”?
Also, I’m not sure where you get off saying taxi drivers are mostly rude and aggressive. That certainly doesn’t line up with my experience, and I take a cab 1-2 times a week. Maybe you’re a bad customer?

False. This is fake news. No one has been found
See Quebec.
if this did happen as the councilor says, it is doing no good for the cab union. they are not owed anything. things and times change. maybe they should all work for uber now. windsor is very much a union town. they need to change to survive.
