It really is.

For those interested in the specifics....

17 weeks for the mother only
35 for mother and/or father (yes you can take it concurrently)

This is a good deal.  Canada's EI (like the U.S. unemployment benefits) pays
$413 a week Canadian dollars.  My employer will bump this up to 930f my
current salary.

Not bad for a bit of a spazzy country  ;-)

Happy parenting to you.  Quite the maternity package, I must say....

Just wanted to say goodbye, sort of, to the best list going.  Here in Canada
parents of new kids (we have a new 3 month old son to go with our 2.5 year
old daughter) can take up to a year off with their kids.  And since my
employer will top-up to 930f my pay (employment insurance takes care of
the rest) I have decided to take off until October.  I will rejoin at my
home email (pambill@xxxxxxxxxxxx) and get the digest.  Gotta stay informed
of everything OM (and the new 4/3rds thing).   I hope that takes off!!!!
sigh...

So see you all around!!!!
