Uber driver refuses blind woman with a guide dog
#1
An Uber Driver refused service to a blind woman because she had her guide dog with her. This happened in Canada and such behavior is against the law. This kind of problem is  happening more and more. The law guarantees accessibility, but it isn't actually working. People are refusing to let guide dogs into places.

This battle was won years ago. How is it possible that we have to refight the battle to allow people to bring their service animals
into public places, into things like Uber cars. How could he just drive off and leave a blind woman on the side of the road. Common decency should have compelled him to help her. We have had some pretty cold weather. Leaving someone outside in a Canadian winter can be more than just an inconvenience. It could have been dangerous. 

Uber needs to deal with this properly or maybe animal lovers everywhere will just stop taking Uber.
