Got terminated from job, am I eligible for EI?

Hi everyone, would really appreciate the help on this! For reference, I live in BC, Canada. I recently got a new job and have only been there for a month, so I’m still in my probation period. Unfortunately, I was let go a few days ago, due to my performance at the job. I’ve never been fired before and have been working since I was 15, I’m 22 now. I am pretty surprised and bummed that this happened to me. I asked my store manager today about my ROE as I applied for EI and was told that she isn’t sure if I’m supposed to get it since I’m still in probation. Tbh I’m not really sure how it works, from my knowledge, aren’t you supposed to receive it legally no matter what? Anyways, she said she would find out for me from higher ups. Can anyone vouch for this…

Can anyone vouch for this or have any information? I’ve been applying for new jobs like crazy, but, unfortunately haven’t landed anything yet. I live at home but, I’m quite stressed as I have my own car and pay my own insurance and help out my parents with our mortgage. Thank you so much in advance!
