    I agree with not keeping standard time, I already get 0430 sunrise, I don’t need 0330 sunrise. However year long savings time would work for me; 08-1700 daylight instead of 07-1600 at the solstice. (Times based on Montréal civil twilight)

    I also acknowledge I’m on an east edge of a timezone, so the west edge (like Thunder Bay) may disagree. With the advances in automated timekeeping technology, this shouldn’t be an issue, we can adjust where that line in the sand is.

      Which one to choose is such a non-issue it shouldn’t even be discussed.

      It’s just a number on the clock. The day doesn’t actually get any longer or shorter, it doesn’t actually get darker any earlier, the only thing that changes is the number on the clock. So adjust your life based on the actual darkness. Start work an hour earlier, go to bed an hour earlier, etc etc and wow it’s exactly the same thing as you were doing before.

      I just can’t believe people even argue about this.
