Default Giving Notice (Quitting Your Job)

Basically I have decided to quit my job, on Friday, after 4 years of being there. I won't go much into details of why but in short I am just tired of it and want to move on. No I haven't found another job but I got the finances to go without a job for a while so I will probably take a few weeks off and then go on the hunt. It's the employees market out here and I have things to fall back on if I don't find my "dream" job before I go broke.

My question is how much notice do I give? Is two weeks the standard or do I give more because the length of time I have been there?

However my important question, of course revolving around money, is from my experience and from talking with other employees/management is that even when I give my notice I can expect to be let go that day or next. Now what am I entitled to?

Do they still have to pay me for the time I put in my notice?

Do they still owe me my vacation pay?

Am I still covered by extended health, etc?

What happens with my company matched RRSPs?

I live in BC so I don't know if this would make a difference or if labor laws like this would be national. I have tried to look on the government websites but I can't find any real answers so I am hoping some CPers might have some knowledge on the topic.

Thanks for the help!
