British Columbia is adopting year-round daylight saving time, meaning that clocks will spring forward by one hour for the last time on Sunday.

After that, there will be no more seasonal time changes in the province, Premier David Eby said Monday.

For four months of the year, from November to March, B.C.’s new time will match Alberta and the parts of B.C. on Mountain Time.

The province will also remain one hour ahead of Washington state, Oregon and California during the winter months.

From March to November, clocks will align with our U.S. neighbours to the south.

Experts, Doctors, and Nurses all say it's poorly implemented

Experts slam B.C. moving to Daylight Time for good

Not everyone is on board after the provincial government announced B.C. would be changing its clocks for the last time this weekend.

“...our body clocks are aligned with the sun clock, and the sun clock is what gives us the indication of what needs to happen with our body clocks.”
...the change will mess with British Columbians’ circadian rhythms with darker mornings in the winter.

“Our circadian rhythms are actually a little bit longer than 24 hours; it’s about 24.2 hours. It’s really important for us to have that natural morning light as a way to reset our circadian rhythms for the day. If we go to Daylight Time, we’re not operating on sun time, we’re operating on clock time because we’re deciding that we can ignore what’s going on with the sun and we can set our clocks an hour forward and carry on as though there’s going to be no impact on people.”

Hall warns it will have negative consequences for an already struggling health-care system.

• Standard Time = good for our human body
• Daylight Time = bad for our human body

B.C. decides to go with Daylight Time. Make it make sense!
One would be completely retarded if they didn't think that the government consulted all kinds of doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals before making this permanent decision.

I guess the they just hate you and want you dead?

Lol what nonsense. The invention of artificial light and now also gadgets put a stop to this rhythm. Sun time lol. My goodness. Love the part about the sports fags being worried about when to watch their sports faggyness now. Lol, what reasoning!

How about longer days in the summer and shorter days in the winter? Should we abandon winter cos we don’t get enough daylight overall? You know for those poor things with mental health issues who benefit from more light? Or maybe they can get one of those sun lights they make especially for people who struggle without it. I’d be in favor of that getting rid of winter though. Fuck the dark and cold!

Or maybe we abandon summer cos the days just go on forever? Remember being a kid and having to go to bed while it was still light out? Torture I say!

This is just as retarded as the people who are in favor of time changes cos muh for my lifestyle this is better muh cos muh when I drive to work it’s light out muh.

I get up at 3am and get home at 7:30pm regardless of the seasons or some random time change. My inner clock is fucked and it’s got nothing to do with whatever fancy time we are on.

standard time is you get earlier sun rises and earlier sun sets. Fine in the winter but annoying in the summer.

Daylight savings time is you get later sun rises and later sun sets. Fine in the summer but annoying in the winter.

Damned if you do and damned if you don’t.
