Downtown employees are a more viable target, but with the government’s office policies constantly changing, locating closer to home probably makes more sense.

Frankly I don’t think either of the locations are great. There are much more accessible locations.
Where are these locations that are more accessible? Don’t forget to include those using transit.

I keep hearing that the central area is a “tiny minority”, excluding people who work there for some reason, but no one ever explains where the large majority lives. The Ottawa suburbs cover about 550 square km, so where exactly do more people live that we should be prioritizing? I honestly don’t get this type of argument.
