Another Public Meeting On E-I Changes And Protest

There's still alot of uncertainty and concern about what effect the changes to Employment Insurance will bring about. That's why a meeting on E-I will be held at the Sussex Legion tomorrow night starting at 7.

It's being organised by Dennis Belliveau who will chair the meeting. Belliveau is from Blacks Harbour and tells CHSJ News fishermen won't be the only people who could be affected because if you live in a small town and get laid off, there aren't that many jobs going around.


Belliveau doesn't know if Fundy Royal M-P Rob Moore, who has been invited, will be on hand.   Meantime, a protest against the reforms will be held Friday afternoon at the King Street office of Saint John M-P Rodney Weston. Schoolbus drivers in the Saint John area, many of whom are women, are especially upset.
