How does getting a seasonal flu shot increase your risk of getting H1N1?

Reader question: I've heard a Canadian report from late September of this year stated that those who get vaccinated with the seasonal flu shot are at higher risk for catching the H1N1 (Swine Flu) virus. Is this so, and if it is, why? Also, there's been no update on this report. I've searched the web and all that I found are the initial articles. Where is all the info on this? Wouldn't it be important to mention?
