The Mowat Centre has convened a research-driven Employment Insurance Task Force to examine Canada's support system for the unemployed. The objective is to develop an Ontario proposal for modernizing the EI system—conscious of the national context—that works for individuals and businesses.

For the Task Force, Arthur Sweetman discusses the hidden subsidies buried in Canada's EI system. According the Sweetman, the EI system has distorted the economy by incentivizing unstable work patterns that are maintained by both employers and employees. Visit http://www.mowateitaskforce.ca
