Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
voluntarily leaving employment  just cause  to accompany spouse 

Summary:

Left her employment to live with a friend whom she intended to marry a few months later. The Board assumed that two persons who do not have a common household or are not bound by marriage ties can nevertheless be spouses within the meaning of para. 28(4)(b). In our opinion this is an error.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
voluntarily leaving employment  just cause  definition 

Summary:

Since the adoption of the new s. 28, the board does not have to consider whether it finds the claimant's conduct reasonable: what it must consider is whether he left his employment in any circumstances described and whether the claimant had no reasonable alternative to leaving immediately.
