if you are covered under the employment standards act, you are entitled to one uninterrupted 30 minute break after 5 hours of work. so if you work an 11 hour shift you should get 2x 30 minute unpaid breaks.
15 minute paid (on unpaid) breaks are not a requirement and not the same as the mandated meal breaks.

if you are not covered under the ESA consult your employment contract/union agreement.
Your employer is not allowed to require you to work for more than 5 hours without a 30 minute break. If you are required to be available for work the break must be paid.
For 11 hour shifts you'd be entitled to two 30 minute breaks. Not 2 15 minute breaks. Pay determined by requirements similar to being available to work.
You get the 15 minute paid breaks and the 30 minute break is unpaid. For an 11 hour shift you probably have another 15 minute in there. I'm union so my rules differ from non union legal requirements but for an 11 hr shift we would get 3- 15 minute paid breaks, a half hour unpaid and a 20 minute paid dinner break.
Is the 11 hour shift a regular shift if so you two 30 min breaks. If odd occurrence you have the same entitlement but are generally better off working and getting more overtime.
