East Kootenay could wind up a patchwork of different time zones as leaders debate best way to set their clocks
B.C.'s East Kootenay region has historically set its clocks to match with Alberta, but recent changes in B.C. have residents divided on whether to stick with their eastern neighbours, or look west to Pacific time.

East Kootenay set to move clocks to Pacific time this fall, leaving just a sliver of B.C. on MT
The East Kootenay region of B.C. has decided to stop changing its clocks after this fall and join the rest of B.C. in the new Pacific time zone, which will be aligned on permanent daylight time. The move means just one portion of the Columbia-Shuswap region, including Golden and Field, wil...

I think the Province should enact a week-long holiday this coming week. All workers stay home and sleep in so that they can get used to the time change one last time and avoid dying in a car accident.

Time change fatigue lingers longer than B.C. drivers think

Crash risk extends beyond first Monday back at work after ‘springing ahead’

Big news in #Cascadia: #BritishColumbia will switch to permanent #DaylightSavingTime. Clocks will change for the last time on March 8 and then will not switch back to #StandardTime in the fall.

Note that #WashingtonState, #Oregon, and #California have all passed similar laws to switch to #PermanentDST, but are blocked by federal law.

It's official! This Sunday will be the last "leap forward" in BC!

As of next November, the Vancouver time zone in British Columbia, Canada will be referred to as "Pacific Time" and will be -7GMT permanently. (same as Yukon Territory which did this 2 years ago)

The presser was pretty cute actually. They had kids with little clocks, and they danced.

I would have preferred staying at Standard Time, but this will be ok too. It's interesting that Premier Eby made a point of (gently, as there were kids) insisting the delay of 6 years since the overwhelming survey response from British Columbians to eliminate the time change was due to waiting for the US West Coast states to do the same.

Now, BC has decided to push, and to lead by example.

West coast of North America - let's talk about the time change? Love it or hate it?
I hate it - let's just all pick one and stay on it all year! Daylight saving time would be nice all year so it's not dark heading home from work, but really either is fine as long as we stop changing the clocks twice a year!
And... go! :)

@Trav1sty @Taco @ink_slinger it's like the Waltons each night... And yet despite the fact that I get up at 6am and am at work before 8 you all make me feel like I slept in. #PacificTime
