Which bad option would you choose?

Background – my employment contract (Canada) wants 12 weeks notice (no penalty listed but maybe they didn’t need to. And could still sue?). New job 7 weeks away. Bonus payment is 5 weeks away and is about $5000. Contract states no bonus if notice given before date of payment. These are my options: Give 7 weeks notice and hope all fine. No bonus and not 12 weeks notice. Give 2 weeks notice after I receive my bonus and hope all is fine. Not 12 weeks notice. Give 12 weeks notice and be Mia for the last 5 weeks (maybe ask to not be paid for those weeks) as new job starts in 7 weeks. No bonus. None of these are pleasant lol. But they are my options. I am taking the new job it is better. Edit: added info re suing?
