I’m in the US and very far from SF. I have been getting a lot more recruiters from SF reaching out.

All the big tech companies are remote. What would Canada and COVID have to do with it?

Google, Apple and Netflix are definitely not remote, that's half of FAANG (not sure about FB, never applied there). Maybe you get lucky and get some unicorn remote gig there (sales typically). I've turned down all 3 in the recent past because they wouldn't let me work 100% remote and expected me in SV/Los Gatos. Even with COVID they're probably expecting people back in the office eventually, I know Google Cloud is hiring and letting people work where they are remotely until quarantine is over- then they're expected to move to the office.
