Lucrative to be on EI..Dianne Finley, Journey for Jobs

The Picture of us all on the couch in front of Finleys office is floating around somewhere.

Labourers have taken offense to Finley's comment in the House of Commons in January as to why she won't reform the Employment Insurance (EI) program to help the extensive number of workers out of jobs.
"We do not want to make it lucrative for them to stay home and get paid for it," Finley said.
Imitating the couch potatoes they think Finley thinks they are, labourers sat their butts on couches outside her office before heading to a rally and barbecue at the United Steelworkers union hall in Nanticoke.
