Prime Minister Mark Carney’s approach signals a new approach: clarity over clutter, flexibility over prescription. It’s an invitation to lead — and a test of who can.
Canadian government employees still lag in returning to physical workplaces, and this needs to be rectified if the government is to maximize professionalism
This non sequitur was the point at which I suddenly felt my suspicions of the writer being full of shit completely validated.
entire piece sounded like “sponsored by Liberal Party of Canada”… RTO mandate is idiotic as issue of “under-performance” is largely a management issue and not an employee issue. In other words it’s a free admission that management is clueless and has no idea how to harness remote to it’s full potential.
Yes, although Carney has a free hand to admit that management is incompetent because it’s a management he inherited from Trudeau’s government, not one he hired himself. Carney worked at Goldman Sachs which has an infamous ultra competitive work culture. I could see him being annoyed with any manager as laid back as Trudeau was as PM.
Why would you re-post the same misinformation three times and then keep all three posts up after you’ve been corrected twice? The Star is not owned by Post Media.
Yes, this was corrected elsewhere, I’ve not edited my posts. I confused Toronto Sun and Toronto Star. My defense is 1) beer, 2) the sun is technically a star

‘Lag’. That’s funny. One of my day contracts is to a gov entity, and it’s 100% remote work. They CAN’T go back, as their workforce spread out so far (hint: low rent but great internet) that a RTO means 30% loss of workforce if everyone who can actually returns. There’s no desks. There’s no equipment because everyone uses their much-better stuff that hasn’t died since CoViD. They can’t outfit staff.

Ha, had the exact same “huh, wait what?” Moment.
If we want to recruit and maintain the best while underpaying them and reducing physical overhead, remote work seems ideal.

that is assuming Carney understands remote, which I’m not certain of.

As I commented, the Toronto Star is owned by Postmedia Network, which is in turn majority owned by GOP connected American VCs.
It’s a propaganda rag, not worth the shit you wipe off your ass with it.

It’s comedy.
