^ wonder if this arrangement will become more common, there was that story the other day about the kid attending UBC but lived with his parents in Calgary that flew over every week

I actually had a prof in uni who lived in Whistler but flew in to Edmonton every Monday to teach a few courses, then on Thursday would fly back. Also worked with an IT contractor in 2018 whose work arrangement with the AB Gov't was he'd work one week from his home in Port Coquitlam, then he'd fly in and work a week on-site in Edmonton. Both were clearly way ahead of the times!
