It's certainly not a perfect system - anyone who works in an industry that doesn't pay into EI is not eligible, and the number of hours you have to be working before you're eligible is so high that most part-time women (read: most second-time moms) can't access EI at all. We need to fight for improvements to it, still. But it is getting better.
