Rights & LegalOntario landlords face the biggest rental law changes in years. Bill 60's N4 and landlord's-own-use N12 changes are in force for notices given on or after September 21, 2026 — a 7-day N4, and no compensation on a landlord's-own-use N12 (never a purchaser's) served with at least 120 days' notice; the 15-day LTB review r
