People prohibited from buying booze have also been using taxi drivers as go-betweens at the drive-throughs.
Dionne says he has briefed council on this issue and plans to propose a bylaw to ban the practise.
Under the proposal, cabs would have stickers that drivers can point to let passengers know it’s illegal for a taxi to be seen using the drive-through.
