Show Notes

This Matters will broadcast the Toronto Star's six-part podcast Hustled each Monday, where the Star's labour reporter Sara Mojtehedzadeh takes us behind the scenes of a David vs. Goliath battle between a scrappy group of Toronto food couriers and the app company they work for.

EPISODE 4: Pandemic

As COVID-19 grips the city, Foodora couriers find themselves working under even riskier conditions. While they receive praise from the public who have gained new appreciation for the food delivered to their doors, their lack of job protections stand in stark contrast to their essential designation.
