    Wut? How does that even work? So, you wake up in one city at 7am…drive an hour to another city, to start work at 8am…only to actually arrive at 7am, because they’re an hour behind you?

    Then you leave work at 5pm…drive an hour to get home…and walk in the door at 7pm? What the actual fuck?

    Seriously, I’d rather switch back and forth twice a year, rather than twice every single day.

      Yes, that’s how things work when you live close to a time zone border. Doesn’t really have anything to do with DST.

      Most people living close to the BC<->AB or AB<->SK borders, for example, deal with this frequently, and stopping DST won’t change that. You get used to it.

      I live in Creston. This is how we currently live until the permanent change. Add on top of that the DST changes around us.

      Now, at least well be on PDT permanently with Vancouver, but our eastern neighbors will so far still change time twice a year.

      Yes. I haven’t had daylight savings time my entire life. Changing clocks is fuckong stupid. Except when I lived it kelowna. I hated changing my clock twice a year there. Fuck daylight savings time. But yes sometimes you have to leave earlier because an hour away is on a different timezone
