Summary:
Left a job about to terminate to take a course. The Commission submits that none of the 5 conditions enumerated in 28(4)(a) to (e) apply in this case. However, this does not end the matter. "Just cause" is not limited to the 5 enumerated conditions, but can include a range of other conditions.

Summary:
The case law makes it very clear that return to school in itself is not just cause. Distinguishing factor unique here: if claimant did not act when he did, an opportunity would pass by, in circumstances where the remaining employment was limited and the likelihood of unemployment after very high.
