labour dispute  loss of employment  by reason of a stoppage 

Summary:

The issue before the BOR was whether the claimants lost their employment with Telus because of a work stoppage attributable to a labour dispute within the meaning of 36(1) of the EIA. The Umpire confirmed the decisions of the BOR in which the claimants were awarded employment insurance benefits. The FCA concluded that the Umpire misconstrued the decision of the BOR. It was clear that the claimants lost their employment due to a work stoppage attributable to a labour dispute.
