From what I know cab drivers work long hours, I can't imiaging they make a killing, in fact I think I recall hearing that they generally work about 6 or 7 hours to pay off their fixed costs like gas and licences, then after than they make profit. Not my idea of fun, but refusing to use cab's won't help them out any.

Taxi drivers make any where from 20,000 to 45,000 and that is claimed income. I am sure they make a bit more than that but they don't disclose it to CRA. Not bad for only having to have a DL as education.
ADD: Also...people keep saying they have a choice. They really don't. It is work those long hours in those horrible conditions or starve to death. It is not like here where if the taxi driver doesn't like his job, he can go work something else or go to school. They are not the same at all.
