Daylight savings vote

[niner]

How’s everyone voting tomorrow? As someone who works outside year round I’m not excited about a 9:30 sunrise. We usually start work at 7 even in the winter. That’s a big part of my day where I need to set lights up to work. I have feeling where this is going though.

Voting??

I'd like to get rid of the time change. Doesn't matter to me if we stay on summer time hours. Or winter time hours.
I just hate changing the clocks twice a year.
Pick one and stay on it

I agree. It is a screw up. Keep it one way and leave it the "F" alone!

This is the other issue to vote on.
Probably won't do Jack $h!t ,

Is this like a provincial thing for Alberta? First I heard of anything.

 

[SHREK1]

Ya typical, they want you to vote but little information and lack of options. Too easy to do it proper so half a$$ it as usual

Municipal government. Mayors stuff like that.
As well as the vote on daylight savings and the equalization referendum

Here FSJ we never change time. Its really nice actually.

Pretty pathetic that this is what our government thinks is important right now with our debt out of control, inflation going through the roof, healthcare issues and they are spending millions to see if we want it or not. Who really gives a F&$k about DST right now. 4 years ago I’m pretty sure the NDP did a study and it cost over a million dollars. Maybe they should do a study on how to lower our cost of living.

I don’t think they are spending really that much. Maybe some on advertising. It’s 2 extra questions on the bottom of a ballot that they piggy backed on that everyone is going to get anyways. A little bit for ink and advertising.

I’m voting to keep it the same as now. Not really a big deal for southern Alberta but if I lived in the north who wants sunrise at 10:19am?

 

[Trashy]

For the winter, I'll give up an hour in the morning, for an extra hour in the evening. Seeing how the summer isn't effected

 

[Clode]

we have a 10:30 am sunrise at the solstice but the days get longer fast.

 

[Stompin Tom]

I prefer daylight savings time, more hours in the morning is key for me. Hours in the evening mean nothing.

 

[lilduke]

I like to sleep in a lil bit, then go sledding. So later days is better for me...

 

[Bnorth]

Would rather have daylight in the afternoon to sled a little later or actually get something done around home after work.

Referendum on ditching daylight saving time would cost Alberta millions: committee

As Albertans ardently debate whether to keep changing their clocks, the government estimates that a referendum on a bill about ending the twice-yearly time change would cost millions.

Just another distraction to keep the focus away from the whole world going to h@ll in a handbasket
