[time-nuts] Yukon to make Daylight Saving Time permanent after final time change Sunday

[Bryan _]

In Canada apparently DST can be amended at the provincial level. Ongoing right now in BC is to follow what the Yukon is doing and get away from DST, but with trade to our neighbours to the south it's preferable everyone be the same. As I understand Washington and Oregon and I think California are following suit but require congress approval. If approved by Congress then BC will follow through.

Hi

I suspect that DST is a decision you can make at the provincial / territorial level and that
time zones are a federal level sort of thing ……
