Hi Althia (Ms. Raj), I'm responding to your Toronto Sun September 15th article, "Feds top up EI benefits". I personally believe a MORE! APPROPRIATE title could have been "Feds DELAYED! toping up EI benefits that - in the end - benefit THE FEW - ONLY! temporarily." I canNOT believe the conditions of this TEMPORARY! FIX to the Employment Insurance Program that will last just until the fall of 1011: only those that contributed for seven (7) out of the 10 past years qualify provided that they did NOT collect EI benefits for more than 35 weeks in the past five (5) years. Currently, EI is DISCRIMINATORY because ONLY! 58% according to Stats Canada who pay into it can receive it. It means that 42% are being DOUBLE-CROSSED! by their Government. Is this FAIR? NO! It's - BLATANTLY - NOT! The Government is saying that this is FINE! The Government is saying that the BROKEN! EI program is FINE! The Government is saying it only needs a TEMPORARY PATCH. Why NOT fix it for good? The UNEMPLOYED doN'T matter? Is that THE REAL! MESSAGE? What's MADDENING is the fact that it does NOT solve the problem of NO! JOBS for several years to come. This means TODAY'S JOBLESS are faced with the prospect of LOSING EVERYTHING! (investments, savings, salable assets) before being able to qualify for social assistance which comes with an "obligatory" social worker. And IF! they work part-time, the $$$ they earn will be taken off their NEXT month's social assistance cheque which means they canNOT supplement their meager social assistance income with part-time work. HOW RIDICULOUS! is that? With an É(eh)PC Government things would be far different. Canadians would NOT lose everything before qualifying for social assistance and SOCIAL ASSISTANCE LEVELS would be DOUBLE! what they are now. They would AUTOMATICALLY get social assistance in the month in which they lose their job. PLUS! those on social assistance will be allowed to supplement their social assistance income with $$$ earned from a part-time job. Why? The goal of an É(eh)PC Government is to help people become INDEPENDENTLY WEALTHY. PLUS! those on social assistance would get a FREE! BUS PASS so they can get around. Right now, those on social assistance are IMMOBILIZED! because they do NOT! have the $$$ to take public transportation. Needless to say this NEGATIVELY! impacts on their health. their quality of life, and their freedom. More importantly, though, the É(eh)PC *proposed* EI benefits are the BEST! because they're EASY TO UNDERSTAND. They're outlined in Article 1.7.4 of the É(eh)PC political platform http://eh-ok.ca/egalite.htm#economy Employment insurance (EI) will be 100% of salary for six (6) months minimum after having worked four (4) months; eight (8) months after having worked 1.5 years; twelve (12) months after having worked two (2) years for the same organization. Canadians are FED UP with 100% CROOKED! FASCIST "behind closed doors" Government. They want prosperity-based CLEAN! Government whose expenses they can monitor, a socially responsible Government that will REDISTRIBUTE THE WEALTH and a Government that will CREATE JOBS by making the creation of small businesses *THE* PRIORITY OF GOVERNMENT. In other words, Canadians want an É(eh)PC Government FOR A BETTER! LIFE.
