Notice to End Tenancy and Landlord Entry

Landlord and Tenant Information and Issues
1

Good morning.

I gave notice to end tenancy for landlord, after that every day (without exception) I have been received Written Notice on the unit door informing who landlord will show my suite for rental between 9AM and 7PM.

Some days no one appear, but sometimes landlord appear many times on the same day.

I know that landlord can show unit for rent while I still live here, but my question is if landlord can appear in my unit without to specify the time and if the landlord can show my unit on sunday and holidays too?

My unit looks like “show room” everyone can show my unit anytime.

Talked with landlord about this and he told me he can do this this way.

I live with my wife and two kids and we do not have more privacy where we are living. I know who landlord need to rent your unit, but I am continuing pay my rent and must have privacy too.

Please, can you help me?

Thanks for your response me, but your response is not clear for me. I read the law before I ask this, but I have two question:
Landlord can appear in my unit without to specify the time? (Yes/ No)
Landlord can show my unit on Sunday and holidays too? (Yes/ No)

I am not expert about this, but for me “A landlord may enter the rental unit without written notice to show” and “have made a reasonable effort to inform the tenant of the intention to show the unit”, Not means that he can enter the rental to show without notice or without specify the time.
Pay the rent during two months while the apartment is available show any day and anytime between 8AM and 8PM, for me this situation is not “reasonable”.
