I gave my two weeks notice to my company due to me getting another job. I had 3 days left of work before i was due to leave. on the Tuesday of my last week of work I was fired for speaking the truth to a contractor about wrong material that was supplied for the job and I wasn't able to complete the job for him due to the wrong material being sent. the contractor then replied my message that I told him about the wrong material to my boss. my boss then confronted me about it and accused me of talking ill about her and the company. she then went on to say I was a terrible working and a terrible person in general. she then informed me that she confronted other workers at my company to say I have been speaking ill about my boss and company the whole time I was there. she fired me over the phone using profanity towards me. I was simply let go for only speaking the truth and refusing to lie. I would like to know, due I have a case for wrongful dismissal and am I entitled to the remainder of my full weeks pay.

We would need to undertake a more full assessment of the situation prior to providing with a legal opinion on the matter; however, so long as no just cause arose during your final two weeks, then you are entitled to be paid the remainder of the notice that you provided to the company.
