In much of Canada, people adjust their clocks in the Spring and Fall by an hour to change when daylight hours fall.
In March, clocks are set forward by one hour to Daylight Saving Time (DST), meaning the sun comes out later in the morning and stays out later in the evening.
In November, the clocks are set backwards by one hour to Standard Time (ST), meaning the sun comes out earlier in the morning and sets earlier in the evening.
Saskatchewan and Yukon no longer change the time, and Alberta, NWT and BC are in the process of stopping the time change. Saskatchewan uses permanent Standard Time, while Yukon, BC, NWT and Alberta use permanent Daylight Saving Time.
We want to hear from you – would you like to see Manitoba stop using time change?
