Turn back your clocks this weekend
Remember to turn the clock back one full hour at bedtime this Saturday night as most of Canada, except for Saskatchewan, falls back to Standard Time.
Turning back our clocks allows us to gain an extra hour of daylight in the morning, making our drive to work a lot brighter.
The Frequency and Time Group at the NRC Institute for National Measurement Standards is responsible for official timekeeping in Canada. Visit the NRC-INMS website to learn more about the institute’s metrologists who satisfy precise time requirements using their primary cesium atomic clocks.
The NRC-INMS website provides a boundary map of Canada’s time zones and lists exact times for each province to move to Standard Time or begin Daylight Saving Time.
