In Thunder Bay, most of the large office buildings downtown were built by the government, but are no longer occupied by it as they've moved their offices to more specialized buildings in the suburbs. One building that was built for government offices in the Trudeau era lost its last government tenant some time ago. A couple other buildings the government built more recently were also cleared out of government offices to new buildings in the suburbs. Since Harper has been elected we've gotten a new federal government building on pretty much an annual basis here, while the province is just sticking with its two locations for now. Pretty much every large office building has some sort of government tenant from some level of government or publicly funded institution, but I don't think any office buildings (except for a city owned building in the north end) are more than 50% occupied by those types of offices at this point.

All the regional bank offices are in the suburban office parks now.
