Transport Canada has shared that its default policy for 3,500 employees for the foreseeable future is to work from home, a decision in line with tech giants such as Twitter and Shopify. The department is also considering a return to the office for only a “small minority” of the department’s workers. Throughout the current pandemic, Transport Canada has significantly increased its bandwidth speed, number of remote-working licences, quality of IT hardware, and availability of collaborative-working apps, such as Microsoft Teams.
