.... isn't it ironic that the federal government announced today it is spending $60 million to bolster the Employment Insurance system, as the number of laid-off Canadian workers continues to surge. The money, Human Resources Minister Diane Finley said, will be used to hire more staff, process claims more quickly and extend the period of coverage by five weeks.
I don't know whether to be glad that many more people will be employed in the short run or be afraid that these jobs were needed in the first place.
