If you look at our business, the business of construction, we have people who will be on a claim, but then they'll go to work. When they go to work, frequently they work 10 or 12 hours a day, 7 days a week, until the job is done, and they move on to the next job. Generally speaking, most construction workers who claim EI end up paying the money back at tax time.
