There's enough in Ottawa for sure. Remember the NCC is also a Federal Commission not Provincial nor Municipal. But also there is a lot of federal agencies present in Ottawa (because it is the Capital) looking to move out of their current facilities/office space.

I understand it is highly location specific. There's a significant impact in Ottawa and, because I am speaking as someone from Ottawa, I made a comment about it. Considering that Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary, Victory, etc. are not the Federal Capital, this particular policy would not affect those cities as much or at all, depending. Again, it having a positive impact in once city but not everywhere while at the same time there being no negative effect should not mean the policy should not be looked at. It's good for Ottawa, at least, and not bad for anyone? So what's the problem with that?
