    II. Principles of Law

    (f) Commission Warnings

    In many cases, the Commission will give a claimant a warning that he or she must expand his or her job search in order to satisfy the requirement of availability under the Act.

    Canada (A.G.) v. Stolniuk, September 28, 1994, F.C.J. No. 1419 (F.C.A.) A-686-93

    However, where it is clear that a claimant is truly unavailable, the Commission's failure to provide him or her with advance warning will not mean that the claimant is automatically entitled to benefits.

    Canada (A.G.) v. Stolniuk, September 28, 1994, F.C.J. No. 1419 (F.C.A.) A-686-93
    Canada (A.G.) v. LeDuc, January 10, 1996, F.C.J. No. 67 (F.C.A.) A-134-95
