New Open Work Permit under Employment Location

[davieno]

Hi
Recieved a new Open Work Permit under case type 20.
The issue is that Employment location is indicated as Montreal. Would this be a problem if I find employment in Toronto or Nova Scotia?

Yes, otherwise why the need of mentioning it.

Did search later and found this on CIC. Possible they used Montreal since it was port of entry in previous Work Permit.

This link explains that that if the location is specified under "additional conditions" then you can work anywhere otherwise you have to stick with the location.

Ok. To be honestly saying if I had been you I would stick with it so as not to get stuck at later stage. You never know with IRCC when they point out something. Rest is your call.
