Daylight Savings Time or Standard Time?
CBC

Highlights
Provinces in Western Canada are no longer turning the clocks back. Manitoba is the latest province to stop switching between daylight and standard time following BC, Alberta, and Northwest Territories who ditched time change this year.
Circadian rhythms
Chronobiologist and professor of biology at York University Patricia Lakin-Thomas studies circadian rhythms, the body's 24-hour internal clock that regulates sleep and daily activity.
“It’s been very sad to see the changes that have been made because those of us who study this, know they’re going in the wrong direction. Everybody knows we want to ditch the switch. We know it causes a lot of short-term acute effects, particularly in the spring that we could get rid of easily.
From a biological standpoint, we need to focus on light in the morning because the clock in our brain that runs the clocks all over our body is set by light and it runs a little slow. So, we need light in the morning to reset our clock to push it a little faster. Ideally, we get up at sunrise and reset our clock with lots of nice morning light.
Unfortunately, they’re picking the wrong way. They’re going to year-round daylight saving time and we can confidently predict they’re going to have buyer’s remorse come next winter.
Under Standard Time, we can be closer to the ideal, which is to get up when the sun gets up. In the winter, people in places that are doing year-round daylight saving time are going to see a very late sunrise. They’re going to be getting up in complete darkness. Moms are going to be getting their kids ready for school and onto school buses in complete darkness. People are going to be commuting to their jobs in complete darkness.
I don’t think the public is aware of how hard it’s going to be in the winter and all of this is happening so fast. Let’s get together and coordinate things across the country so we can come up with a common solution. Of course, we’re hoping it’ll be standard time everywhere. That would be ideal.”

The war on man
Is year round Daylight Savings Time another silent weapon in the war on man?
