I think he's referring to the employment standards code. A company only has to provide the required notice (or severance in lieu of notice) as set out by the employment standards. Employees don't really have the right to hold out for more. If an employer chooses to provide more than the minimum, that is up to them, but legally, they are only obligated to abide by the minimum as set out by the code.

EDIT: Sorry this was in response to the post by V
