In Ottawa on an unrelated visit Monday, Ontario Premier Doug Ford reiterated his call for federal public servants in the capital to get back to the office and breathe life back into the city’s often deserted downtown.
That must be one of the worst arguments. How about the betterment of people?
How about the betterment of people?
His interest is most likely in the betterment of the pocketbooks of chums of his who have relevant real estate.
Or, and hear me out, the downtown drug dealers were feeling the pinch and called in a favour from their old pal Drug Fraud.

The #1 thing we can do to reduce pollution, wear and tear on infrastructure, and save employees money is work from home.
But returning to the office is more important?
Ford is literally begging for this to “revitalize” downtowns.
Like, maybe, we should readjust what downtown looks like, so we can avoid this wear and tear, save the environment, and save people (and cities) money?
Maybe we should be making the downtowns more livable places so there are people there at all hours of the day to support whatever services are there?
This is gross management, unnecessary RTO needs to be banned
FedGov! Come for the low wages, stay for the provincials dictating work policy.
The Dead Sea Effect is gonna be awesome, despite the high percentage of newcomers working in gov.
