Tens of thousands of Ontario public servants return to office full-time next week. Here’s what that could mean for Toronto

They’ll join tens of thousands of other employees from banks, tech companies, and the telecom sector who have also been called back to the office in recent months, as part of a trend that is shifting away from remote work.

Statistics Canada data shows that for the fourth year in a row, the proportion of employed people mostly working from home is falling and as of May of last year, 76 per cent of all workers in Toronto were commuting.


How much worse can Toronto traffic get?
