Canada's Earliest Sunset Will Be At 3:17 PM When Daylight Saving Time Ends
The clocks they are a-changin'! When daylight saving time in Canada ends, that means sunrises and sunsets will be so much earlier. The earliest sunset will actually be at 3:17 p.m. in one major city.
When daylight saving time ends at 2:00 a.m. on November 1, the clocks will go back by an entire hour in most parts of the country.
That means an extra hour of sleep!
For places that didn't scrap time changes like Saskatchewan and Yukon did, the return to standard time means different sunrise and sunset times.
Other provinces and territories are also trying to get rid of the twice-annual changes by staying on daylight saving time year-round but that could mean really late sunrises in the winter.
Here's when the sun will come up and go down in major cities across the country when we switch to standard time on November 1.
