The omnibus budget bill making its way through Parliament makes
changes to the Employment Insurance Act, including how suitable
employment is defined and determined.
"There’ll be a broader definition and people will have to engage more in the work force," Finance Minister Jim Flaherty told reporters on May 14.

Employment Insurance system can collect benefits for a length of time
that varies depending on the region where they live. But they must also
look for a new job, and start work if something suitable becomes
available.
