I hope this is wrong.

Old Ironmaker Posted March 23, 2020 Report Posted March 23, 2020 I also listen to Lior Samfiru and called his office a few years ago and got a free consult from one of his staff. He knows his stuff.
misfish Posted March 23, 2020 Report Posted March 23, 2020 If memory serves me right, does the Ford family not have shares in the LCBO ? Reason he said they will remain open . Heard no mention of the beer stores staying open .
Terry Posted March 23, 2020 Report Posted March 23, 2020 Yup beer ,liquor , and cannabis stores i think he know some families will kill themselves without a way to mellow out or pass out
Old Ironmaker Posted March 23, 2020 Report Posted March 23, 2020 (edited) From Lior Samfiru's website as it pertains to workers rights during this pandemic. "In the event that an employee is let go or fired from their job as a consequence of the coronavirus pandemic, their dismissal will likely be considered a termination without cause. That employee will still be owed full severance pay under common law." So yes at this time any employee that is laid off in Ontario is eligible for full severance pay. Read his full statement below. From the horses mouth. But it was March 5th, I can't find anything that is different today. The best way to get the real info we need at this time, actually any time is from the source so as to not start rumours. That was today, tomorrow it may change but for now my wife if laid off will get a severance package. If anyone is sent home with a reduction in pay they can demand a layoff. We had a similar situation during a strike at my plant in the 90's. Salaried employees were sent home with 65% salary until further notice. 65% salary in some cases was below what that employee would get on what was then U.I. I am going to try and call his office tomorrow, but I bet the phones are ringing off the hook. https://stlawyers.ca/blog-news/what-are-an-employees-rights-during-a-coronavirus-outbreak/ Edited March 23, 2020 by Old Ironmaker
gaspumper Posted March 23, 2020 Report Posted March 23, 2020 Beer and liquor stores to remain open,they won't close them because they will loose to much tax money.
Whitespinnerbait Posted March 23, 2020 Report Posted March 23, 2020 I was listening to his show on saturday......LIVE and sure he said if your " laid off " directly related to the coronavirus pandemic........you cannot consider this a dismisal or qualify for severance
