Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
board of referees  natural justice  free of bias 

Summary:

Signs of impatience or distraction by members not necessarily to be interpreted as bias in cases where lengthy arguments by an appellant do not stand the mildest legislative scrunity. Doctrine of reasonable apprehension to be applied in the context of the particular facts.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
availability for work  absences from home  out of canada 

Summary:

Travelled through U.S. to find work. As the CEIC points out, the question goes beyond that of availability for work. Ss.32(b) clearly disentitles him. It lies beyond the jurisdiction of an Umpire to remedy any perceived injustice; that is a matter of legislative policy.
