Subject: "É(eh)PC
*proposed* EI benefits are BEST!"
says É(eh)PC President/Party Leader
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 Em-
ployment 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
pro-
vided 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 Govern-
ment.
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
INDE-
PENDENTLY 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 REDIS-
TRIBUTE 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.
