when is daylight savings 2026

ontario should do this

how about for the rest of the country

Please can Alberta do this too?

Of course they had to go and pick the wrong time. Experts agree that Standard Time is better for health.

Wait til it's still dark at 9am in the middle of winter! They should have stuck with Standard Time instead of Daylight Savings Time. Just one roadside worker's humble opinion...

We should be on standard time not daylight savings time. And yes why didn't we have a referendum?

What about the east part of BC that is on mountain time?

So half time were pacific time the other half were mountain time. Thats a bit weird.

I live in mountain time part of b.c. now they say mountain time is not included but meanwhile I live in b.c. I if thas the case why are we not part of alberta.

It will be interesting to see how much people like daylight savings time when sunrise is at 9:00 a.m. in December.

Wonder if the sale of those SAD lamps meant to help moods with light therapy will be a booming business again? Time for another (SAD) light bulb option and timers sale - there goes my electrical bill so I do not wind up being in bed from 5PM to 9AM until the sun wakes up in the winter.

Daylight saving time is a deceptive name as it doesn't actually increase the amount of daylight hours. It only shifts when daylight starts and ends. About time to end this stupidity.

This is a BAD IDEA and we need to abolish Daylight Savings Time and go year-round Standard Time. Daylight Savings Time vs Standard Time I decided to do a little bit of research. When we switch to Standard Time in the winter, we are in fact moving into the normal time period once again. It is the summer months that are off by an hour. Standard Time; aka Winter Time; aka Normal Time vs; Daylight Savings Time; aka Summer Time The main purpose of Daylight Savings Time or Summer Time is to make better use of daylight by moving an extra hour in the morning to the afternoon. While watching CTV News The National for Saturday 2 Nov 2019 I saw a clip by Patricia Lakin-Thomas York University Professor. She said; • Sunlight in the morning is essential to the internal genetic clock. • Internal clock cannot be reset to suit a social schedule. • Standard time, do not have to get up earlier in the winter months. • Populations living in the same time zones, those living in the East are healthier that those in the West. • The west gets up in the dark even though they share the same time zone. • Those getting up in the dark are in greater risk of: a. Higher rates of overweight and diabetes b. Higher rates of cardiovascular disease; heart disease; c. Higher rates of cancers Conclusion is that if we adopt a single time system, that we go back to Standard Time and do away with Daylight Savings Time. It is healthier to have that extra hour of daylight in the morning than the evening. It keeps people alert when traveling to work and cuts down on traffic accidents.

Daylight time should be ditched completely. Making it permanent is stupid. Standard time should be permanent instead.

The description is incorrect saying that BC will be an hour behind Washington, Oregon and California. The province will be an *hour ahead* of those states when they fall back an hour in November and BC remains on the same time zone as the Yukon

So dumb if the rest of the continent doesn’t do the same

most of Mexico got rid of daylight saving time in October 2022.

This was passed to happen several years ago but BC was waiting on various states to do it at the same time. Well, we finally waited long enough and took the initiative. Hurray!

Wow, it was started back in 2015 and it's only now that they do it. lol.

It is made to sound like a super genius move when most of the world was there a long time ago.

So what’s going to happen with watches that get set by the Atomic clock which for us is out of Denver ? My watch sets to LA time , there is no Vancouver time setting . And why Daylight and instead of Standard ?

I hope my smartphone gets the time change correct seeing how much I depend on it.....

Does this mean all the smartphones won't automatically change the time as well? fingers crossed since we are so used to having our Smartphones automatically change daylight savings imagine our smartphones still automatically change on its own?

Not knowing there were kids there I was wondering why he was talking to everyone like they're children lol

After the clock changes on the 8 March 2026 This means eliminating the clock change on Sunday 1 November 2026 Vancouver will have a sunrise at 9:07am and sunset will be 5:23pm on the 31 December 2026 The sun will rise and set 1 hour later from the 8 March onwards

I hate the daylight saving time thing we lose an hour sleep they should just change it permanently to the time this weekend when we move it back forward because when I travel to Asia it’s gets confusing for my relatives sometimes like they have other family members across the U.S. as we’ll so like for example 10:00am this coming weekend on the 8th would be 12:00am the next day in Southeast Asia which is more easier to remember then oh it’s 9:00am here it’s 12:00am the next day over there it’s the same for east coast time zone meaning 3:00am for us is 3:00pm for Southeast Asia which again is much easier to remember then the stupid daylight saving time turn the clock back an hour waste of time where we gotta change it back on all our clocks at home in our cars and on some of our devices and random clocks we have around our home and for our older vehicles it’s like we just wasting time doing this every year it’s dumb!

We should be on standard time not daylight savings time. And yes why didn't we have a referendum?

Was there a referendum on this?

Personally, I'd rather stay on Standard Time than remain and DST. Seems like we are STILL catering to the freaking US. Wished we had a Province Wide vote to determine what we wanted.
