Ridesharing got the green light in the province of British Columbia on Thursday, allowing Uber (NYSE:UBER) and (NYSE:UBER) to set up shop in Vancouver. 

This isn't the first attempt Uber has made to operate in Vancouver. The city was one of the first target markets outside of the US during Uber's expansion in 2012. However, the British Columbia Passenger Transportation Board, an independent tribunal that makes licensing decisions for commercial passenger-directed vehicles, informed Uber that it would need to charge a minimum of $75 per trip, the same as other chauffeur services, which caused the company to exit the market.
