|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# From Chris Walton (2011-12-01): |
|
|
|
|
# There are two areas within the Canadian province of British Columbia |
|
|
|
|
# that do not currently observe daylight saving: |
|
|
|
|
# a) The Creston Valley (includes the town of Creston and surrounding area) |
|
|
|
|
# b) The eastern half of the Peace River Regional District |
|
|
|
|
# (includes the cities of Dawson Creek and Fort St. John) |

|
|
|

# Earlier this year I stumbled across a detailed article about the time |
|
|
|
|
# keeping history of Creston; it was written by Tammy Hardwick who is the |

# According to the article, Creston has not changed its clocks since June 1918. |
|
|
|
|
# i.e. Creston has been stuck on UTC-7 for 93 years. |
|
|

|
# Dawson Creek, on the other hand, changed its clocks as recently as April 1972. |

|
|
|
|
# as plausible as any other date (in June). She also said that after writing the |

|
# 1. 1884 or 1885: adoption of Mountain Standard Time (GMT-7) |
|
|
|
|
# Exact date unknown |
|
|
|
|
# 2. Oct 1916: switch to Pacific Standard Time (GMT-8) |
|
|

# Exact date in October unknown; Sunday October 1 is a reasonable guess. |
|
|
|
|
# 3. June 1918: switch to Pacific Daylight Time (GMT-7) |
|
|
|
|
# Exact date in June unknown; Sunday June 2 is a reasonable guess. |
|
|
|
|
# note#1: |
|
|
|
|
# On Oct 27/1918 when daylight saving ended in the rest of Canada, |
|
|
|
|
# Creston did not change its clocks. |
|
|
|
|
# note#2: |
|
|
|
|
# During WWII when the Federal Government legislated a mandatory clock change, |
|
|
|
|
# Creston did not oblige. |
|
|
|
|
# note#3: |
|
|
|
|
# There is no guarantee that Creston will remain on Mountain Standard Time |
|
|
|
|
# (UTC-7) forever. |
|
|
