Summary:
Quit job in 02-94 in order to be able to benefit from a severance package. Reason for accepting the buy-out was that she would be moving in 06-94 to be with her husband. FCA's reasoning in Tanguay reinforced: an employee "who leaves his employment for the purpose of gaining some monetary advantage" is "not a circumstance which justifies him in putting himself in a position where he risks having to go back on unemployment".

Summary:
