MODERATORS
 

@canada Residents of #canada, would you be in favour of your province or territory abolishing annual clock changes and moving to a consistent, year round time?

If yes, what would you prefer: year round daylight savings time (an extra hour of sunlight in the evening) or standard time (an extra hour of sunlight in the morning)?

I want global coordination on either 0 or whatever time changes done simultaneously.

@humanspiral this is what China does. It should be like 4 or 5 timezones or smthg but they only use one: their Eastern-most timezone. From what I understand though the locals in the Western provinces don’t really use the official time in their day to day. They still stick to the old, unofficial timezones. I think that shows that even if we did have one coordinated global timezone people wouldn’t necessarily use it
