For the current 60-day Ontario N12 path, keep one month's rent compensation or an accepted alternate unit visible and documented by the N12 termination date. The future 120-day no-compensation prompt is limited to landlord-own-use notices served on or after September 21, 2026 where the statutory criteria can apply; purchaser own-use notices should still keep compensation visible.
