  "textContent": "\n\n\n\nBritish Columbians will adopt year-round daylight time, springing forward by one hour this Sunday for the last time.\n\nPremier David Eby said Monday the decision is about making life easier for families, reducing disruptions for businesses and supporting a stable, thriving economy.\n\n\"British Columbians have been clear that seasonal time changes do not work for them,\" Eby said.\n\nThe decision means that B.C. will transition to Pacific time, the same time zone as the Yukon, and will match Alberta from November to March.\n\nThe province will remain one hour behind Washington state, Oregon and California during the winter months.\n\nEby says people and businesses will have eight months to prepare for the elimination of the next time change, which had been set for Nov. 1.\n\nHe says he's hopeful B.C.'s American neighbours will join the province in ending the disruptive time changes.\n\nAttorney General Niki Sharma said they've heard from an overwhelming majority of people in B.C. who want to end the back-and-forth of seasonal time changes.\n\n\"This shift offers more stability, supports public well-being and reduces twice-yearly, unnecessary disruptions to the routines of parents, shift workers, small businesses, pet owners and so many more,\" Sharma said.\n\nShe said she looks forward to enjoying an extra hour of sunlight after work and school for many winters to come.\n\n_This report by The Canadian Press was first published March 2, 2026._",
