A landlord must make reasonable efforts, depending upon the facts and circumstances of each case, to give the tenant advance notice in order to permit the tenant to be prepared for entry into the unit by the landlord to show the unit to prospective tenants.'
In short--'reasonable' has been deemed to be your landlord saying 'I will be showing the property', in the past, according to RTA decisions. While you may not like it, your landlord has every right to rent the premises and if you want to firm up what you consider notice--I would suggest you provide enough contacts so that your landlord would be able to reach you.
