Number of Jobs by Census Tracts

Last August, I had a special request from a professor working in the Transportation Department of Ecole Polytechnique and I would like to share results of my request with you.

The professor wanted the number of jobs by census tracts in Montreal related to place of work and not residential location. The only documents that answered that request are the following:
