Here's the official verdict from the Superintendent of Insurance of Alberta has said on Uber:
and about Uber's supposed insurance coverage?
Look. I frequently take cabs and hate them just as much as the rest of you. But is driving around without insurance as some sort of act of civil disobedience to prove a point worth it? I'm pretty sure the Alberta insurance industry will make their darnedest to publicize the first denial of a Uber related claim to publicize this fact.
If anything else - can you not see from the above link that that the Province of Alberta regulates the insurance requirements for Alberta, not City Hall?
Gives us all another reason to hate the NDP. (Thanks Rachel!) |
I'm finding it so hard to believe that anyone gives a F about why the City has a problem with an illegal service coming along to provide a service that the City is doing it's best to keep at a pathetically pathetic level.
I hope Intact white knights this endeavour, and the City and the taxi companies end up in a dirty, public scrap, and we all finally find out who is getting paid off to keep things the way they are.
