    My province switched to permanent DST this year, so we’re experiencing it for the first time and it’s… not that bad 🤷

    I’m in Vancouver where it’s already cloudy, and some kids were already heading to school an hour early for various extracurriculars

    IMO if kids going to school in the dark is really a problem, then it should be fixed by adjusting when school starts and ends rather than changing the clock for every single person. I like having more sunlight in the afternoon when I can make use of it, compared to in the morning when it’s used up by transit / getting ready for work and school.

    However I wouldn’t mind it too much if we had switched to permanent standard time either. I’m just glad that we don’t have to change anymore.
