Summary:
Claimant had a permanent employment and her spouse was unemployed. Claimant left her job in Ontario to accompany her spouse who was going to a seasonal employment (10-week duration) in New-Brunswick. No indication that the move would be permanent: the possibility was considered but no decision had been made. In fact, they did move back to Ontario. Held that at the time of the move, the claimant was the only spouse who was employed and providing financial support for the couple. Claimant should not have jeopardized that without the firm indication that there was no alternative to her moving at that time.
