Alberta Considers Permanent Daylight Saving

Published 3 weeks, 2 days ago
Description

Albertas Premier Danielle Smith proposes permanent daylight saving time, aligning with Saskatchewan and BC. Despite a 2021 referendum rejection, Smith believes public opinion has shifted. The move aims to extend evening light for activities but faces opposition from University of Calgary professor Michael Antle, who warns of potential health issues and accidents due to mismatched sunrise times in winter. NDP Leader Naheed Nenshi criticizes the government for ignoring the referendum results.
