Mayor Ivan Court says the overabundance of cabs in the city is making it hard on those who drive one full-time.
The taxi by-law is undergoing revisions, such as introducing metered fares, and he says he wishes he could help the drivers trying to make an honest living by getting rid of those who only drive during busy periods or on weekends.
Court says he would like to see a limit on how many taxis there are in the city but that power falls under the province.
