Better to use Uber

Doug Ford?

Just pay cash.. And watch machines elsewhere too..

And the fraudsters must be Liberal supporters

I'd like to say I'm shocked, but taxi's.

Not updated, same blabbering on about winter happening during winter. remove the snow from roads, sidewalks, etc don't leave it next to the side of the road. do what they do in Montreal and Washington DC. it would save money for the city in the long run. Bring it on, we are Canadians, not a big deal
