Dismissed Unanimous  No N/A  29511 


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
week of unemployment  minor in extent 

Summary:

Relying on Jouan (A-366-94), the FCA held that decision did not focus sufficiently on the primary factor relevant to the determination of whether self-employment is minor within the meaning of ss.43(2) of UIR which is the time devoted by the claimant tohis business.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
week of unemployment  meaning of working 

Summary:

Wrong in law to conclude that since payment to the claimant under the contract would be deferred until 1995, he could not be considered to be working during 1994 while performing that contract. Time of payment for work had no legal relevance as to whether the claimant was working.
