Pilot project concerning remunerated passenger transportation services requested exclusively using a mobile application

Act respecting transportation services by taxi

(chapter S-6.01, s. 89.1).

DIVISION I GENERAL

M.O. 2016-16.

1. The implementation of the Pilot project concerning remunerated passenger transportation services requested exclusively using a mobile application is authorized. Those services may be offered in the territory of the municipalities designated in Schedule I.

A holder of a taxi transportation service intermediary’s permit issued by the Commission des transports du Québec or the Bureau de taxi de Montréal is authorized, as of the date of issue of the transportation service intermediary’s permit, to provide using exclusively a mobile application publicity services and request distribution services for remunerated passenger transportation services by automobile to the permit holder’s partners-drivers. The permit holder is designated in Schedule I.

M.O. 2016-16, s. 1.

2. The purpose of the Pilot project is to experiment and innovate in the area of remunerated passenger transportation services requested using a mobile application, by ensuring that the provision of those services is managed in a manner that takes into account the needs of the public and the principle of equity toward permit holders operating under any permit at the time the Pilot project is implemented. The purpose of the Pilot project is to collect information on all the services offered by the permit holder, particularly as regards the safety and quality of the services offered, and to study the impact on transportation services by taxi.

M.O. 2016-16, s. 2.

3. The Minister of Transport, Sustainable Mobility and Transport Electrification authorizes the permit holder to make the permit holder’s mobile application available to the permit holder’s partners-drivers 50,000 hours per week, corresponding to the maximum number of hours of 300 taxi owner’s permits.

The duties payable to make the mobile application available for 0 to 50,000 hours during a week are $0.97 per trip begun during that interval.

Where the permit holder makes the permit holder’s application available for 50,000 to 100,000 hours during a week, the duties payable are $1.17 per trip begun during that interval.

Where the permit holder makes the permit holder’s mobile application available for more than 100,000 hours during a week, the duties payable are $1.33 per trip.

Where the permit holder makes the permit holder’s mobile application available for more than 150,000 hours during a week, that block of hours may be adjusted upward or downward, on the basis of the preliminary results, by amending the Pilot project.

For the purposes of the Pilot project, the week begins at midnight on Monday.

The hours are calculated by adding the minutes during which each partner-driver is connected to the permit holder’s mobile application.

M.O. 2016-16, s. 3.

4. The permit holder must pay the Minister a quarterly instalment of $1,100,000, representing the estimated duties payable for a quarter. The Minister establishes the actual amount of the duties payable for the quarter concerned. If the amount of the instalment is less than the actual amount of the duties payable for the quarter concerned, the permit holder must pay the difference in the following instalment. If the amount of the instalment is more than the actual amount of the duties payable for the quarter concerned, the permit holder deducts the difference from the following instalment.

M.O. 2016-16, s. 4.

M.O. 2016-16, s. 6.

7. A police force in Québec issues, after a written application to that effect, a positive or negative search certificate to any partner-driver. The verification by the police force must be in regard to any sexual misconduct, failure to provide necessities of life, criminal operation of a motor vehicle, violent behaviour, criminal negligence, fraud, theft, arson and drug or narcotic-related offences.

In this Regulation,

(1)  “positive search certificate”  means a document attesting that the data banks accessible to the police force contain information making it possible to ascertain the existence of an impediment referred to in section 30;

(2)  “negative search certificate” means a document showing the absence of an impediment referred to in section 30.

A certificate referred to in the first paragraph must bear the signature of a person authorized to complete it on behalf of a police force in Québec, the contact information of that police force, an identification number and the date on which it was produced. The certificate must contain the name, date of birth and address of the applicant and specify the nature of any indictment or conviction for a criminal or indictable offence that constitutes an impediment under section 30.

7.1. The permit holder must ensure that every partner-driver has been the subject of a verification of judicial record compliant with sections 7 and 30 by requesting from the partner-driver the certificate referred to in section 7.

Where the permit holder receives a positive search certificate containing an impediment under section 30, the permit holder must, while ensuring that the Charter of human rights and freedoms (chapter C-12) is complied with, refuse or revoke the registration of the partner-driver.

The permit holder must require that every partner-driver immediately inform the permit holder, in writing, of any impediment to maintaining the registration.

Where the permit holder notes an impediment under section 30 during the consultation provided for in subparagraph 3 of the first paragraph, the permit holder must refuse the registration of the partner-driver.

The provisions of Title III of the Automobile Insurance Act concerning the owner then apply to the permit holder, with the necessary modifications.
