Story summary

Ontario is set to implement permanent daylight time in its northwest region starting November 1, 2026, aligning it with Manitoba. This decision follows a similar move by Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew, who announced last month that his province would cease twice-annual clock changes and stay on daylight time year-round in the central time zone, leaving Manitoba one hour ahead of other Prairie provinces. Indigenous Affairs Minister Greg Rickford says there is broad support among municipalities, First Nations, and businesses for this change to ensure consistency with Manitoba. The adjustment aims to avoid confusion for communities situated along shared borders and in overlapping time zones.
