Canada

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The federal government will expect public servants back in the office three days a week beginning later this year.

A federal government source who is not authorized to speak publicly about the matter confirmed to Radio-Canada what the French-language newspaper Le Droit first reported Monday.

It's a major alteration to the twice-a-week hybrid model that prompted some 155,000 Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) members to walk off the job last year in what their union called a "watershed moment" for workers' rights.

But Minister of Public Services and Procurement Jean-Yves Duclos said individual ministries would maintain the final word on how employees return to the office.

In downtown Ottawa, public servant Tannis Labelle wasn't keen on the idea of returning to the office for a third day.

The 2024 federal budget set a 10-year target for cutting Public Services and Procurement Canada's office portfolio in half.
