There’s a new taxi company in town this week!
WA N R
TIP TOP TAXI
LL’S
Cornwall’s Tip Top Taxi is open for business and they want YOUR business. Tip Top Taxi is locally owned, operated and managed and the manager is no stranger to these parts.
Linda MacInnes has been driving taxi in and around Cornwall for over 25 years. She grew up as the daughter of a taxi owner/operator. Mousie Laframboise was a well- known, loved and respected cabbie for 50 years in our city. Linda remembers her dad teaching her how to determine the exact block where a specific address would be in the original 10 by 10 block grid of centre town, as a game, when she was a young girl fascinated with numbers. He taught her to drive, too. Even made her parallel park around Pitt and Second in afternoon traffic in that big old ’62 Olds!
Linda Macinnes . . . a familiar face around town!
Linda first worked at Co-op Taxi in the late 80’s. She joined her Dad at Veteran’s Modern Cab in the 90’s. In 2003, she opened the muchcelebrated Choice Taxi. After eight years, she feels that it’s just not fun anymore. When companies get too large they lose the familiarity, the spirit, the heart that made them popular and effective.
Tip Top Taxi is starting out as a small company. We will see our regular customers more often. Our customers will see us more often. Cornwall taxi passengers are like an extended family to us. Recently I learned that a baby girl I drove home from the hospital when she was born just graduated from an Ottawa University in criminology and may go on to be a lawyer! The other reason for starting anew is to escape the constraints of rules that no longer seem to put CUSTOMER SERVICE FIRST, LAST AND ALWAYS. Tip Top Taxi is going to go the distance to better serve the public. A customer can even request their favourite driver if he or she is available! Linda invites all of her family, friends and passengers to call her and her co-workers at Tip Top Taxi for truly user-friendly service! Call 613-932-2727 - AND REMEMBER THIS NUMBER !!! We know where you are, where you’re going AND how to get you there!
