With recent investments in both Lyft and Uber, it will be interesting to see how Lyft executes on it's international expansion.
> John Zimmer, Lyft’s president and co-founder says 5,000 Torontonians downloaded the app this year with no service available.
> Uber has become part of Toronto’s transportation scene, with almost 50,000 drivers — many part-time — and new services including food delivery.
> Kristine Hubbard, Beck Taxi’s operations manager, expects Lyft’s entry to worsen Toronto gridlock. “It’s another reason to encourage cars to cruise the streets of our city — many of them who come from outside it — who otherwise wouldn’t be there.”
