Can you file for employment insurance if you still own a business that makes $10,000 a year without work in Canada? Let's say you lose a job, not by your own fault, that made you $90,000 a year, but you're still making 10,000 a year in a side business that doesn't require you to put more than 1 hour every month, can you still apply for employment insurance and get $1,500 cheques every month in Canada?

Yes, but you must report the income (gross income - operating expenses) in the week when the work was performed. It probably will reduce the EI payment for that week.
