“Losing the air traffic control services in our six communities would be economically and socially devastating,” says the letter, which comes from mayors of Windsor, Whitehorse, Prince George, Fort McMurray, Regina and Sault Ste.

While couriers like Sopher and Thompson have long warned of the gig economy low pay, no job security and lack of coverage for injuries and sicknesses, their concerns became even more alarming after last June. That was when Uber scrapped its earnings structure offering couriers fixed amounts based on pick ups, drop offs, distance and time and a series of bonuses for using the service during busy periods or in high demand neighbourhoods.
