Uber, the ridesharing company that made its name by steamrolling local regulations, isn't much for compromise. Just ask the French-speaking Canadian province of Quebec.

On Tuesday, Uber Quebec's director general Jean-Nicolas Guillemette announced that the company is leaving the province on October 14, citing too-tough regulations there. The planned move was first reported by the CBC and confirmed by Uber on Tuesday. Several days before the company's announcement, it had warned that new rules proposed by the provincial Ministry of Transportation would force Uber to exit Quebec. Uber has a history of threatening Quebec lawmakers with leaving if the company's policy demands aren't met, but has only now followed through.
