As a recently retired/unemployed guy I will look into this. I was thinking of moving back out west due to the fact that where I am now located there is nothing but McJobs. The wife brought up the subject of transferring her job out west and her boss told her that her company would cover between $5-10,000 to complete the move.

Couldn't read any further huh? Too much readin hurts your brain?

Yea andy, you making fun of someone's intelligence....

I'm surprised you didn't cut-and-paste your comment.

You made a statement of fact, a scenario that doesn't exist, followed by a cut and paste that contradicted what you said. Well done.

Thank you. I acknowledged that I was working under the wrong assumption. You think that's something to laugh at, you're pretty small.

The OP was a cut and paste. How do you think hurling cut and paste at somebody backs up your argument?

Thanks. Now I have to find a job out west. Got a couple of feelers out, just seeing what's available.

No, I don't see this as a violation of Charter mobility rights. But what is EI? It's supposed to be payments to people while SEARCHING for work. If you're searching for work where there is none, then you're not really searching, are you? So, in one sense, if you refuse to move, you're not living up to your part of the bargain.

The only legal issue I see here is that, if the government is going to force these sort of conditions on users of EI, then citizens ought to be able to opt out of the program and refuse to pay the premiums. I'm not a big fan of insurance purchases being forced on people, which is a major failing with Obama-care in its present incarnation.

+1 Sound logic, clearly presented.

Yea, that's pretty small of you to jump into a topic, not read the article, make assumptions, edit your post, then take jabs at people.

You win.

Thanks, pee wee.

Sorry, but that's stupid - just like Lorne Gunter's recent column;

http://www.torontosun.com/2012/05/15/ei ... -insurance

Why should somebody be forced to move to another city/region for work?
.

Your blood pressure might not have spiked had you read the article. The surveys were discussion of incentives as in, what would motivate you to move from Spuzm or Boston Bar to Nanaimo (for example) in order to take a job instead of sit on EI. Not a bad idea to pursue, I would think as there might be some who'd like to move but don't have the funds. Ultimately, spend a few thousand to move someone might be cheaper than having someone sit on EI.
