Daylight Savings Time Gone Awry...

So to be more like our neighbours to the South Canada has changed their daylight savings time dates to reflect with the laws passed in the U.S. last year. This amazes me that someone can just choose to change time. I mean when if I started living in my own timezone? The other bizzare part is that this is the first I've heard of this even though it's apparently been going on for over a year....

So tonight set your clocks forward!

"In 2007 Daylight Saving Time begins on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. This pattern will be followed by all provinces which observe daylight saving time and each province has amended their legislation to reflect this change. Previously, Canada had observed Daylight Saving Time from the first Sunday in April until the last Sunday in October.

This change in Daylight Saving Time will keep Canada's Daylight Saving Time pattern consistent with the United States which enacted into law a broad energy bill that will extend Daylight Saving Time in the same manner."
