Unemployment income is generally considered 'Passive' income. You could choose 'General' if you like; it won't make a difference in the calculation of the Foreign Tax Credit amount.
For reporting your Canadian Unemployment Income as 'Other Taxable Income', you could use the description 'Canadian Unemployment Income'. You can use any description you like.
Here's more detailed info on Claiming the Foreign Tax Credit and Form 2555.
