Most Canadians changing clocks to spring forward for daylight time
Most Canadians changing clocks to spring forward for daylight time
Canadians are changing their clocks tonight as much of the country prepares to spring forward for daylight time. The change happens for most of the country at 2 a.m. local time. Yukon and most of Sask...
A terrible day for Canada and therefore the world
I wish we could spring forward forever!
Lots of states and provinces are already aligned, afaik once it passes the US house and Biden signs it, Canada tags along and we all spring forward forever, which would be amazing IMO
Not as good as just staying on standard time forever but better than flip-flopping all the time
I truly do not care even one little bit about whether it stays on daylight time or standard time, I just want to never have to perform this absurd little ritual ever again.
Fuck this. Make it stop. I feel like I'm going to die every single time. Whoever came up with this better be burning in hell right now and anyone that is pushing to keep this needs to disappear dissenter in Russia style.
Most of the time I see boomers whining about the weakness of the youngs and I roll my eyes, but then y'all start up with this weak shit while living in a society where most clocks change themselves for you and I think, well, maybe.
It's a physical adjustment to your sleep schedule with or without the fucking clock adjusting itself. I like how anytime any progress is suggested the old fucks thinks it's something about us that is weak, reality is they were too lazy or too busy sucking corpo / conservative cock to do anything about it themselves.
Also a society where we get fucked up the ass by work and are expected to take it as an honour to even be employed in the first place, and only the execs get to start and end whenever they want so this would never affect them other than if they wanted to birddog.
The time change is also swapped from what would seem logical to me iirc. I would rather just stick with the one that would result in getting up before the sun for part of the year. I put in my time regularly getting up before 4am to drive in the dogforsaken darkness to get to work an hour or so away assuming no rockslide remediation, and often still just barely not get there before the train blocks the road for hours at a time, making all of us late. If that's weak then everyone is weak.
Congratulations 🥳
Personally, I'm of the opinion that we should just set all the clocks to UTC and stop trying to coordinate wall clock time and solar time, since walll clock time is arbitrary anyway.
Ha, I’ve been proactively waking up an hour early all week the last two weeks so I’ll be ready for this. Everyone else will be groggy, and I’ll be king of the morning!
On DST, it's well agreed with my job that I come in an hour later (and end an hour later as well).
I change my clock, but I also change my alarm so I end up waking up at the same UTC time.
It's easier to stay up late in the summer if I start work an hour later as well!
That’s nice that your work is done with that. My boss is kind of a stickler, so early is fine, late isn’t. So I’ve just shifted to early and tomorrow I’ll be on time.
I remember something about Ontario basically saying that they are waiting on New York to stop switching back and forth. They would just stick with DST.
I am retired. Until I saw this post I had no idea that there was a time change. I sleep when I'm tired, eat when I'm hungry and could not tell you what month it is.
To me, people complaining about how hard it is to adjust to daylight savings time is the epitome of a first world problem.
Yes, but it is a problem. It's a problem that has no partisan component, which can be fixed without political grandstanding. It's also a problem which kills people: the 6% increase in car crashes it causes is a lot of easily preventable deaths.
