Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
fishing  charter 

Summary:

Self-employed persons are not, by definition, engaged in insurable employment and therefore they are not entitled to UI. An exception is made in s. 130 for fishermen. There is no merit in the submission that s. 15 of the Charter is violated by the scheme established under s. 130.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
fishing  extension of qualifying period 

Summary:

Qualifying period commencing on 31-3-85 for seasonal fishing benefits cannot be extended under ss. 7(2). There is no merit in the submission that s.15 of the Charter is violated because there is no provision for extending his qualifying period by reason of disability.
