@canada Residents of #canada, would you be in favour of your province or territory abolishing annual clock changes and moving to a consistent, year round time?

If yes, what would you prefer: year round daylight savings time (an extra hour of sunlight in the evening) or standard time (an extra hour of sunlight in the morning)?

Yes. Please keep it at standard time. Keep noon at noon.

In BC we are now on permanent daylight savings. Gives us a winter dark around 4:30 instead of 3:30

Instead of changing how the sun works maybe change how humans work. Instead of 9 to 5, how about 8 to 4 ?

[–] castle88@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Also in BC. We should have gone with permanent Standard time imo.

[–] BCsven@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

Why? You want 3;:30 sunrise starting? I prefer the 4:30am start, and daylight in the winter near end of day

[–] Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Same here. Wish they put it to referendum, no idea why they went with daylight savings.

Why would you want sunrise at 330 in the summer?

[–] Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Why not? Wake up naturally with no alarm clock at like 6am ready to take on the day and feeling refreshed. Sunlight pouring through the windows as you drink your coffee and get showered.

I would rather have a ton of sunlight in the morning then late in the evening.

[–] BCsven@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

We get that already with 4:30am sun starting, no need for 3:30am

[–] dubyakay@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

You can do the same with 430am sunlight though.

Most people won't even notice if they leave work at 5pm, will still be dark no matter what so why not have an extra hour of light in the morning instead? I much prefer standard.

[–] BCsven@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

In winter it is dark here in the morning too. Rainforest oveecaat cloud cover means its pretty bleak

You chose to be consistantly wrong ?

[–] BCsven@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

You probably don't live near Vancouver. Otherwise you'd know Daylight time makea more sense
