Paquin c. Canada (Procureur général)

SH v Canada Employment Insurance Commission

Appellant failed to prove, on a balance of probabilities, that he had good cause for the entire delay because the evidence showed he had the capacity and means to make basic enquiries (internet access, completed co-op, international travel) and his disability evidence did not establish an inability to perform those basic tasks; therefore the application cannot be antedated to January 5, 2025.
