Example: Home-office=50km, Home-site=10km, Site-office=40km. My Triangle is Home-Site-Office.
CRA does not allow the home-to office mileage as there is no deduction for "going to work" and "home to site" would be considered the same way. All mileage from the office to anywhere else is considered to be valid travel. There is the Canada Employment Credit that is supposed to help with the home to work cost. If you add up all of your fuel, interest, repairs, and insurance costs divided by the total mileage for the year times the allowable business mileage, you can compare that to the allowance you were given. If your costs exceed that amount, you can claim the additional. Be careful to keep all receipts as CRA is fond of asking for the support for this type of claim.

Is it possible to get the CRA reference stating that the home-to-office mileage is not reimbursable?
Here are two Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) that have this information:
Allowable motor vehicle expenses – Salaried employee expenses
