With no action by the NDP government on ridesharing, the Province has cost thousands of Edmonton drivers income opportunities by forcing Uber to suspend operations in the city. Uber will respect the government’s decisions, and a temporary suspension will take effect at 6:00 AM on March 1st and deprive tens of thousands of local riders of a safe, affordable and reliable transportation alternative.

Uber will continue to work with officials in Alberta in the hopes of bringing ridesharing back to Edmonton soon. Please join us in asking the province embrace innovation:

Given that Edmonton’s new bylaw applies only within city limits, we will continue to enable ridesharing services in surrounding areas.

We will keep you informed of any developments.
