The ‘hoax’ of the Nazi time zone in Spain that still robs us of sleep.

Much has been written about the fact that Spain adheres to CET, rather than being on Greenwich Mean Time, the same zone as the United Kingdom and Portugal.

It’s widely believed to be the result of a gesture from Franco to Hitler.

Although not true, Spain is still torn between history and health.

Summer time change is so confusing that even Time And Date got confused.

Central Time: Canada's Geographic Heart! ❤️

Central Standard Time (CST) at UTC-6 covers Manitoba and parts of Nunavut. This zone is often considered Canada's geographic heartland. Like most of Canada, it observes Daylight Saving Time, shifting to Central Daylight Time (CDT) in the warmer months. A vast and vital region! #Canada #TimeZones #CentralCanada #CST

Yukon's Permanent Daylight Time! ☀️⏰

Yukon made a unique decision in 2020: it permanently switched to what is effectively Pacific Daylight Time, meaning it stays at UTC-7 year-round. No more changing clocks! This aligns it with Mountain Standard Time, offering consistent daylight hours and simplifying life for residents. #Canada #TimeZones #Yukon #NoDST
