It varies by region of the country, I guess there's areas of Canada where the maximum amount of time you can collect EI is 45 weeks... Yes just 7 weeks short of an entire year. This is where people get steamed about the seasonal workers who do 8-12 weeks (2-3 months) and collect IE the rest of the year.
