MONTREAL—Deep-rooted frustration among taxi drivers with the UberX ride-hailing service rose to the surface on Tuesday, Aug. 25, at a demonstration involving several hundred cabbies in Montreal.
They parked their vehicles in an industrial park for more than an hour to listen to speeches that slammed UberX and promised even stronger actions if the provincial government fails to act.
The anti-UberX protest was one of the biggest demonstrations of those held in cities across the province that day.
About 100 taxi drivers also staged a demonstration against Uber in front of the national assembly in Quebec City.
We will not accept UberX—that's the message.
