A Toronto-based food delivery courier has sparked an intense debate on the plight of gig workers in the city, claiming he earns just over $4 per hour working for UberEats.

The user shared a screenshot of their recent earnings, showing nine trips over the course of just over 15 and a half hours, with a total earning of $63.45 — breaking down to $4.09 per hour worked. Making matters even worse, a staggering $26.12 of that total was earned through customer tips and not paid directly for time worked by Uber.
