Daylight Saving Time: Put your clocks forward one hour on Saturday night

DAYLIGHT Saving Time begins on Sunday, March 10 at 2 a.m. when clocks will be put forward one hour (“spring forward, fall back” is the way to remember that!) – most people will do that on Saturday night before they go to bed.

So the time difference between Vancouver and India will be reduced by one hour to 12.5 hours.  When it’s 9 a.m. here, it will be 9:30 p.m. in India.

Sunset in Vancouver on March 10 will be at 7:11 p.m.

Daylight Saving Time will end on Sunday, November 3 when we will put our clocks back one hour.

Incidentally, in 2019, more than 93% of the record 223,273 British Columbians who completed the Province’s survey on time observance indicated they would prefer a move to permanent Daylight Saving Time.

However, the province is waiting for decisions to be made by other jurisdictions in Canada and the western United States before introducing permanent Daylight Saving Time.
