The Residential Tenancy Act allows the landlord to inspect the rental unit once a month as long as you are given the proper notice (between 24 hours and 30 days in writing, saying exactly what date/time they want to come in). If the landlord puts the notice in your mailbox or mail slot it's not considered received until after three days from the day it was delivered. It it was mailed, then it's not considered received until after five days from when it was mailed. Unless you agree to something else, your landlord can only come into your suite between the hours of 8 a.m. and 9 p.m. [2015] - Kris Anderson
