Uber set to address all-party B.C. MLA committee

For the first time, Uber will make its pitch to a committee of MLAs — although legislation allowing the ridesharing company to operate in B.C. still could be months away.

The government says the committee is expected to produce a report next month, and that legislation should be in place by the end of the year. 

Ride-hailing, provided by companies like Uber, allows customers to order and pay for a ride by using their smartphones. 

The all-party committee will study the issue at the same time
