Length of severance after 6 years of

I have been working in the company for six years and the manager discriminates me from oothers with emails, attitude and behaviour. I recorded what he has done or not done in order to eliminate me?

I was dismissed from work without notice and suddenly am out of work. I am not an employee, rather I was paying yo the clinic a percentage of my OHIP billings. Am I ENTITELED to any compensation?

I am 63 yrs old, & my employer knew of my health issues. I missed no time off @ work, or was never late. However after 3 months & 4 days I was terminated 15 minutes before end of day. Am I entitled to severence pay?

my employer assured me I would receive 16 weeks continuous pay so I signed the letter they gave me. They then paid me in one lump sum payment the following week, costing me much more in income tax than I had anticipated. If they had said it would be paid in a lump sum, I would not have signed, but negotiated the money be put into RSP. This was not what I had agreed to. Could this nul and void the letter of termination?
