Summary:
The claimant accepted a job at less than past wages and later left because of its alleged unsuitability, less hours than anticipated. The case was sympathetic since it involved retroactivity and a large overpayment. In short, the Court said: given the error by the Board in regard to the meaning of just cause, the total absence of evidence as to suitable employment under section 27 of the EI Act (refusal of suitable employment) and the fact that section 27 did not apply in this case, the Umpire should have intervened. The Court took into account the following decisions: Tanguay (A-1458-84), Côté (A-562-04) and Tremblay (A-50-94).
