Answer: You have been wrongfully dismissed and are entitled to approximately 5 months' severance pay, and potentially more depending on your age. You also may be entitled to damages pursuant to the Ontario Human Rights Code as it appears they terminated your employment based on your need to take a medical leave of absence.
