Like it or hate it, it91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™s that time of year again. Time to turn back the clock. That means darker afternoons but an extra hour of sleep.
On Sunday, Nov. 4 at 2 a.m. the clocks go back an hour.
On Sunday, March 10, 2019 they91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™ll spring ahead again.
Not everyone is in favour of the twice-a-year time shift, however.
Last year, Premier John Horgan went on record during the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention, saying he91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™s not opposed to looking into abolishing daylight savings time but it91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™s not on the top of his priority list and he91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™d like to hear from citizens first.
Officials remind us the annual event is a good time to change the batteries in our smoke and carbon monoxide detectors if we haven91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™t done so already when daylight saving time began last March.
