2018 My employer just recently terminated my employment for breach of contract because I can not work on a regular basis due to my on going condition which I am still being treated for My dr is 100 percent behind my illness can they do this legally

Thank you for reaching out to our firm.

Generally speaking, your employer absolutely cannot terminate you as a result of a medical condition or when you are only on leave for a few months. Due to how long you have been with the company for, your severance entitlements would be very significant.

I recommend that you obtain legal advice. Please contact me directly at stephen.gillman@stlawyers.ca so we can schedule a time to discuss your matter in more detail.
