Add Comment Question: I was employed for 11 months and I was terminated without cause. I was told I'm "no longer a fit with the company". I just spoke to the Service Canada/EI agent responsible for my case and was told that my former boss gave me a glowing reference. He thought the agent was a potential employer. He was told that I was an "exemplary employee" and excelled in my position but the position was terminated due to a lack of work. Not even 3 days later a new employee was in my former position. Do I have any case here? Answer: Your employer can let you go for whatever reason they want (unless it is discriminatory under applicable human rights legislation), but they need to provide you with an appropriate severance package. To determine if you were provided with an appropriate severance package (http://www.severancepaycalculator.com/), please visit the severance pay calculator or contact our firm to discuss the matter further.
