Ward VI Reasons From Sunday

R. Joey Koopmans, B. Admin., Ward XII YEG City Councilor Byelection Candidate, Edmonton, Alberta

January XXVIIth, MMXVI

Hon. Dave Eggen, B. Ed., MLA, Minister of Education, New Democratic, Edmonton-Calder

Dear Dave:

Oh this is rich, so very rich! Would you favour giving money to the hands of Ward VI YEG City Councilor Scott McKeen? I sure wouldn't, I mean his idea to place parking meters on residential streets is ridiculous! First & foremost, he'll just use the funds to offset the costs of setting up Uber licensing & administration. So taxi cab drivers & citizens would be directly subsidizing Uber drivers whilst parking on the streets in front of their own residences. Secondly, Coun. McKeen will take the revenues to cover security costs & administration which he will hand over to that welfare bum Daryl Katz & The Edmonton Oilers for arena start up & maintenance costs! This extra cash will then lower costs for Uber drivers & cut the number of taxis that pick up & drop off riders at Rogers Place. Is there anything taxpayers are not subsidizing when it comes to the Oilers, well I mean besides a crappy team, even with Conor McDavid!

Uberlicious,

R. Joey

I would agree that council's take on Uber is problematic at best.
