What an absolute joke. Public transit is already at full capacity, bills and expenses are higher than ever and they want us to come in everyday and spend $300-$500/month commuting to work.

Not too surprising with the current provincial administration.

In line with the global retreat from greenwashing. Burn hydrocarbons to fill an office building and attend meetings online instead of saving trillions of dollars and co2, and accepting that some industries will shrink and others will grow.

According to this article:

It also comes just two weeks after AMAPCEO, which represents some 14,000 professional, administrative and supervisory employees in the Ontario Public Service, ratified a new collective agreement.

The union says access to working from home was a key issue in bargaining and the province was "determined to eliminate" flexible work provisions in that bargaining.

I hope the 87.2% of workers that voted to accept the agreement are happy with their arrangement.

This decision is in line with an increasing number of organizations across the public and private sectors.

And? So??

Does this make sense for OPS or not?

Trying to make car traffic worse so he can blame bike lanes harder and get public opinion behind him using the notwithstanding clause after he lost the charter challenge on bill 212?
