In a recent meeting, Harrison Amit, CEO of HOVR, Toronto's emerging rideshare company, met with Ontario Premier Doug Ford to discuss the company’s vision and initiatives within the province. A key point of discussion was HOVR’s commitment to supporting local communities as a proudly Toronto-based Canadian business. Amit emphasized HOVR’s dedication to creating equitable job opportunities and fostering transparency within the rideshare industry. This includes allowing riders to see the exact amount drivers earn from each trip, and drivers to understand precisely what riders are charged, fostering trust and clarity within the platform.
The two leaders also addressed HOVR’s broader mission to uplift under-served communities across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) by expanding transportation access, particularly in areas where rideshare services are often limited or unavailable. By providing job opportunities and aiming for fair pay practices, HOVR is positioning itself as a company that values both economic inclusivity and community development. Premier Ford expressed support for HOVR’s initiatives, acknowledging their potential to positively impact local economies and transportation options. Together, Amit and Ford discussed the importance of innovation in addressing current challenges, setting a collaborative tone for future interactions between HOVR and Ontario’s leadership.
