Spring Forward to Daylight Savings Time This Sunday

Brockville – Its that time again to Spring Forward this Sunday for Daylights Savings time (DST).

Time to advance your clocks one hour ahead this Sunday morning.

In Canada, daylight saving time is observed in nine of the country’s ten provinces and two of its three territories—though with exceptions in parts of several provinces and Nunavut.

Most of Saskatchewan, despite geographically being in the Mountain Time Zone, observes year-round Central Standard Time (CST).

In 2020, Yukon abandoned seasonal time change and moved to permanently observe year-round Mountain Standard Time (MST).[3] In 2026, British Columbia decided to move to a permanent Pacific Time (essentially PDT) year-round. This change will come in effect from March 8, 2026 and BC will not move back to PST again in November.

Alberta is still considering scrapping seasonal time changes following B.C.

Ontario introduced a time amendment act in 2020, also proposing the province switch to permanent daylight time — but said it would only act if Quebec and New York, its time zone partners, did the same.

On Monday, a spokesperson for Ontario Premier Doug Ford confirmed to the Toronto Star that their position remains the same, even in light of the recent developments in B.C.
