People who drive or deliver for app platforms in Ontario such as Uber, Lyft and Skip the Dishes are calling on Premier Doug Ford’s government to grant them basic workers’ rights by classifying them as employees.

what will be the results of them beocming full employees (which I do not object to!). i’m certain business side will claim prices of delivery will go up, or will be corn in cost of food. so customer pays either way. me no care really; i like the convenience but except for the d3eepst of thew pandemic, ~9 monhts, we did dorrDash or Skip at least once a week. and tipped driver very well, cash, usually $15+. on $100+ meals for 5 (k was here as with Gw&P). on top of the delivery fee and other serivce charges. And I’m well known for being anti-pittping. (cool to put in link to tags=tipping instead of just to a single article.
a note on tagging: here I was thinking I shpould make a “anti-tipping” tag to go with (against?) “tipping”. but with such a narrow focus, “tipping” should suffiice. since serarchs for “tipping” will result in both?
