Alkhouri, 62, has been driving a taxi for 33 years. He bought his taxi plate for around $100,000. (Sara Frizzell/CBC) Alkhouri was a boat captain before coming to Canada to avoid war in Lebanon.

"Right now, I'm sorry to say it's $7,000. Probably even less." JIhad Alkadri says business is gradually getting better, with fewer taxi drivers on the roads and more people returning to work downtown.
