This Ontario company will pay for you to relocate from Toronto if you want to get out
If you're in the market for not just a job or career change, but a location change as well, you may be a fit for one of the dozens of open positions at the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation, which will actually help (read: pay for) new employees to move to a new city.
The pandemic has us all reflecting and reconsidering a lot of things about our pre-COVID lives, and the remote work trend, business closures and the sky-high cost of living have already driven so many people out of the downtown core.
While real estate and rent prices in towns even as far as an hour outside Toronto are shooting up to unaffordable levels, many are considering moving further afar to somewhere where it doesn't cost nearly $1 million for a condo or a small, aging bungalow in the province's armpit.
