That's definitely a million dollar question.
One thing that we definitely need to be thinking about is, if someone is in seasonal employment and they want to move into a more stable job, what the process is and what systems underpin that transition. Do they need to go back to school? If they are trying to support a family, how are they going to go back to school? Perhaps we need to look at improving our employment insurance system to support people as they are training for additional skills to move into a new job. That's one piece of the puzzle.
A seasonal worker may not qualify for employment insurance because they don't have enough hours. If you're trying to move from one job to another after your seasonal work has been completed, you might have to move very quickly to try to find different work if you don't qualify for employment insurance in order to do that training and take the time you need in order to find the job that is the right match.
