Expired TN visa and unemployment

I am a canadian resident and a citizen. I have worked in the US for 10 years but have always lived in canada and filed taxes in both countries.

My TN visa expired on the 30th of May .I was getting unemployment from US , well only one cheque to date and then today I got a letter stating that i need a to give them a valid visa to continue unemployment . i can only work in the US on a TN visa if I am employed So as of now I do not have a visa as I turned it in to INS when I lost my job.

If one works on a TN visa and can they collect Unemployment if the visa is expired. I have paid into the system for many years at least for 10 years now and what is the recourse to appeal I am referring to US unemployment benefits

Also as I am a canadian resident and a citizen can I collect unemployment in canada even though I have never worked in canada
