I was laid off because of no work. That was on May 18/2016. Am I entitled to severance pay? I worked there for 10 yrs. in a small company in Brantford Ontario .

Thank you for the question. If you've never been laid off before by this employer, and there is nothing in your employment contract that allows the company to lay you off (or if you do not have a contract of employment), then you can treat the layoff as a termination and receive severance.
