I know we did—at least, my colleagues did—a decent job trying to get answers out of the PR person from Uber, but we haven't talked about Amazon. Quite frankly, when you look at logistics and the gig economy, Amazon plays a huge role in this new evolution of work.
We heard the story from Mr. Wedge about the newcomer. I think it would be a surprise to no one around the table that very pressing issues are temporary foreign workers and international students. Having a low barrier to entry is very good. People who want to work can show up and work. However, they can do so with little oversight, regulation or verification, quite frankly. If they're contractors, I would imagine Uber probably doesn't even check the legality of whether they're able to work.
However, I digress. The point is, what should we be learning from this moment, in terms of the labour market and the ways in which these technologies can exploit workers, such as pitting worker against worker by flooding a certain market and driving down the compensation for drivers?
