I don't think they do. In fact, I don't know of any local tech company that does. (And, yes, I know that CRA considers it a taxable benefit, but I would be compliance on that is very low. And CRA will first go after such benefits in Toronto, Calgary or Vancouver where parking could cost $500+ per month.)
I do like the idea of offering the TravelWise pass as an alternative. I'll try to bring this up at our office sometime, even if I think that the take-up rate will be fairly low, knowing where people live.
