58WE DO WORK! Just remotely. Everything is digital now, I dont have any reason to be in office five days per week. The hybrid model has proven to be more efficient, effective and better for mental and physical health. Youre still getting quality services (at least with the Ontario Government) with happier employees. Its 2025, nearly 2026 get with the times!

90I know for a fact remote working gives less work and more shopping, gardening also play time with kids and if I need to talk to someone I want them dressed and in the office.

95Start a home based business if you want to work from home. Government employees should be expected to go to the office.

52TDS is alive and well in this country. People accuse President Trump of childish behavior but don’t recognize their own irrational thoughts. Sad. Why should we lose money for no good reason. Charities get enough money. Some are such a scam.

65The problem is that it cost too much for the tax payer to fund government home employment with each government employee home office equipped with electronic devises and services, year to year ("As of 2024 , 367,772 people were working for the federal public service in Canada.).If they want to work from home, they should consider themselves self employed and pay for their office essentials themselves and then write them off (as per Sq.. ft. they use in their homes for office space), of their income at the end of the tax year.I understand that it's a sweet gig at home, but in todays economy, food prices alone will send a family of four to the food bank.

30Why? Other than you being jealous they work a job that's capable of being completed at home? Do you like your tax dollars going towards office rentals and real estate for the government or something?

Tim Hortons outlet closes dining room to public
TBNewsWatch 66This is a direct result of Canada's decision to support addicts in maintaining their addictions through access to free drugs, zero consequences for antisocial behavior and a city council full of people who are more concerned with bleeding heart policies than public safety. At some point, you Liberal voters are going to have to recognize and admit that your social experiment of treating addiction with a smile and a pat on the back has failed. Thunder Bay has never been a particularly introspective town, but it is no longer possible to deny that the wild increase in violent crime, homelessness and addiction did not come from nowhere and that it all went wild under Liberal leadership. It's also no longer possible to pretend like this isn't happening all over Thunder Bay and that these addicts are just one hug away from going back to their productive careers and families. Hard choices need to be made here, and across the country, but we seem to lack leadership willing to make them.

Big changes coming to U.S. side of Pigeon River border crossing
TBNewsWatch 57The new US border facility will never see me. Since the USA started its economic warfare with Canada I have not made a single trip to the USA and never will again. Americans only have themselves to blame, both republicans and democrats. Enough of the US world-wide stupidity, they have turned the whole world off anything and everything american.

55The problem with too much remote work is that it is more difficult to assess employees for leadership roles when you don’t see them interact directly with others. I think it is clear that many people can deliver very working remotely but there may be a cost to those employees in lost opportunities

61When I can hear a dog barking and kids making noise in the background that interferes with the conversation I'd say yes, it's time to go back to the office.

57Risenshine33. Our tax dollars pay to employ you. If we want you in the office, that’s where you need to be. Will you take a reduction in pay if we let you stay home?
