Is it legal to lay off both husband and wife if they both work for the same employer?

Question: Is it legal to lay off both husband and wife in a family if they are working for the same employer?

Answer: I have never heard of any law, anywhere, that makes it illegal to do so. Though I am not familiar with the employment and labor laws of Calgary, Canada, I would doubt they have any law making that illegal. Wish I could give you better news. Sorry.
