Well yeah, but it's tech, there's virtually no need to work locally unless you're actually working in the datacenter (which there won't be a ton of on-site personnel required for). If you're doing support delivery, you are either working from home or flying to a customer unless you live near a campus location.

Amazon is putting their western Canada AWS region datacenter in Calgary. This is big news for the local economy and tech future. Even Microsoft's major regional datacenters are Toronto and Montreal and nothing out west. $4 Billion investment and 900 jobs.
Allegedly, there wasn't enough grid capacity out west for a Canadian regional datacenter for M365/Azure.
