Summary:
The Commission denied the claimant's application for EI benefits on the basis that he had not accumulated 700 insurable hours as required under s. 7(2) of the EIA. The Umpire allowed the claimant's appeal on the ground that the BOR had based its decision on an erroneous finding of fact, i.e. there was an error in the calculations of the number of insurable hours worked by the claimant. The FCA allowed the application for judicial review finding that the Umpire was under the wrong impression that the Commission had not taken into account hours worked during the entire relevant period of time.
