Thunder Bay? In 1908, there was no Thunder Bay. There was Fort William and Port Arthur, which one was it?

DST is VERY silly. This day, when I leave the yard for my first student pick up, the sky is starting to lighten and it is light when I pick up this child, though I am driving into the sun. One week from now, it will still be pitch black and I will have to go through AGAIN, driving into the sun. DST means that I have to repeat this TWICE in the Spring and TWICE in the Fall! Not good.

Besides, Stampede fireworks at 10:30PM is not good for kids, it is too late. W/O DST, everything would be over by 10:00PM, plenty late for little ones to be up.

Their basing DST on school issues is a strawman argument. All they need to do anywhere is change the school hours to suit the season....problem solved.

Otherwise, I'll always take the extra sunlight at the end of the day.
