Things are much better than they used to be regarding 'seasonal jobs' and then collecting EI the rest of the year...I think some of that is because of people willing to move 'away' to get work (Newf. workers and For Mac is the biggest example). A few decades ago there were jobs that people pretty much 'shared' so that they could all get EI, places such as fish plants that were open just long enough to get the workers benefits etc.
