Summary:
The claimant was disentitled from benefits three days per week because she had stopped working at her part-time employment due to a labour dispute. The umpire ruled that the work performed by the claimant was covered by the collective agreement and the fact she refused to perform picket duty did not in any way change her participation or the interest she had in the outcome of the dispute. The umpire concluded that to say section 36 of the Employment Insurance Act did not apply was an error of fact and in law.
