Fall Back: Daylight Saving Time Ends In Canada This Weekend
On Sunday, November 6th, 2022, Daylight Saving Time (DST) will end in Canada. This means that the clocks will be set back by one hour at 2:00 AM local time.
DST is a practice of advancing clocks during the summer months to make better use of daylight. It was first introduced in Canada in 1918 as a wartime measure to conserve energy. DST has been used in Canada every year since then, except for a brief period during the Second World War.
There is some debate about the benefits of DST. Some studies have shown that it can lead to energy savings, while others have found that the benefits are negligible. DST can also disrupt sleep patterns and increase the risk of traffic accidents.
Despite the debate, DST remains a popular practice in Canada. A 2019 survey found that 72% of Canadians support DST.
