Thank you.

I won't ask your opinion on this, but everyone knows that employment is seasonal in Quebec's eastern regions, especially. Those who work in tourism, the fishery and other such sectors have been very hard hit. Workers have to deal with a so-called black hole or seasonal gap in benefits.

Have the relaxed EI rules helped the situation?
