Payroll Taxes
In response to the new taxes increasing . Due to the increase in people collecting EI there has to be somewhere the money comes from. Also the fact that many people on EI do it for convenience of it and don't look for a job . Many workers on seasonal basis do not look for work until their called back in the spring . So excuse me who supposed to pay for this .
