Honestly though, do you really want to take them to court? Why bother leaving that option open?
Regardless what you choose, don't burn bridges. Don't be a pain on purpose. It sounds good at first, but it really can limit your future options. Many (not all) individuals telling you to do crazy revenge stuff wouldn't do it themselves. In the long run, not worth it.
Hell, I'd even suggest chatting with the guy who fired/rehired you and say that you know what's coming up and after you meet EI, if he offers you 2 weeks pay, you'll sign an agreement saying you'll hand him a signed resignation letter to cover his ass the moment the 2 weeks clears the bank. Both parties win. You get 2 weeks plus EI plus work while waiting for new job. Sketchy or not, give him a way out and it might work out better for you. Both of you winning means you win more.
No idea on the legalities on how this goes, but pretty sure playing grey area means you could get a little extra pay for completely nothing but a statement and signature. The proper way to do this is highlighted in the post above as well as other posts about employment standards.
If you want revenge, last day of work, "accidentally" spill coffee on an electronic device they own. Hiding a strong annoying odor in a common area works too (uncapped cheap perfume by/inside air vent). But don't cut ties openly.
