This whole situation sounds awful. You injured yourself AT WORK. They are not supposed to be allowed to fire you ("let you go") whether you are on probation or not. It was a workplace injury!!!
I would suggest phoning the employment standards line like others have suggested. And also I would take the job back and earn a salary while I recovered from the injury that happened. For sure. The fact they even tried to off-load you in the first place is shady as hell. I wouldn't let that hiring manager guy bully you now into not coming back because of his rude and unhappy attitude, etc.
