Key Employment Insurance data removed from government stats

Is it any wonder that while the government is pushing in Employment Insurance changes that will impoverish Canadians, they’ve simultaneously hid key statistical data from their reports?
And just in time, too! Gotta hand it to the Harper government, when they screw over the Canadian population, they make sure to do it right!
Demand for information about EI is running high right now due to the government’s slow strip tease on changes to the program.
“Loss of data will make it much more difficult to analyse the impacts of changes to the EI rules as they are implemented,” said Andrew Jackson, chief economist at the Canadian Labour Congress.
He is concerned that stricter criteria for EI claimants are coming at the same time as Ottawa reduces the avenues for appeal — leaving adjudicators with little leeway to allow for local and personal circumstances.
