Quebec Transport Minister Jacques Daoust and Mayor Denis Coderre called for the suspension of UberX, following protests by Montreal taxi drivers, on Wednesday.
According to CBC News, hundreds of taxis disrupted the flow of traffic at Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport to protest the use of the UberX app.
A committee will be created next week by Quebec’s new transport minister in order to find a way to mediate the conflict between taxi and UberX drivers in the province.
