EI Regional Info

[Drail]

alright, so I plant trees in the spring, and I'm tired of working during the winter (granted, I've only actually worked threw one winter, and it was a night time job - but that's not the point) so I'm interested in applying for EI.

now it seams like a bunch of planters have no real problem getting EI, but it seams too good to be true. And I know that the amount of hours required is different in every region, does anybody know how many hours are required to apply in the lower mainland... and how big of an area does regional mean? (like I mean, is vancouver a different region than burnaby, and if not, is the GVA a different region than whistler.... maybe by county (like squamish-lilloette county is one, and therefor vancouver would be different than burnaby)

anyways... If anyone knows the answer to those two questions than it would help me out... thanks.

isn't there a website for this stuff?

On that note, if you can afford internet access, should you be on EI?

I worked for Hrsdc, and I can tell you that you better be looking for jobs and not skiing everyday takin it easy. It sure works for some, but they do caught A LOT of people, and when its time to re-imburse with interest, its really no fun...Plus whistler is a place with tons of jobs, so if your application doesnt make sense, they will get you, be careful!

yah..... ummm employment insurance is something you don't want to fuck with unless you really need it.... As soon as you take advantage of it your fucking with the government and they'll fuck back!

So....... Use it only if you need it.. Its not really a joke. Plus its tax payers money as well....
