The federal government introduced daylight saving time to increase production during the First World War, shifting an hour of sunlight from before breakfast to after dinner. The federally-regulated time change ended with the First World War but resumed during the second, when Canada returned to a year-round daylight saving time, along with the United States. Most countries changed their clocks during this period. Since then, governments at the provincial and municipal levels have regulated daylight time in their respective time zones.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chatham-kent.ca\/community-services\/fire-department\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">C-K Fire Department<\/a> reminds us that we should use the end of daylight saving time to change the batteries in our smoke alarms.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-54688 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/bri-web-app-wordpress\/2018\/09\/63a1a3cf-cksy_5_things_4.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"65\" height=\"90\" \/>On Wednesday Toronto&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scotiabankarena.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Scotiabank Arena<\/a> announced that they&#8217;ll be starting venue tours on November 12.<\/p>\n<p>The tours will include the Maple Leafs and Raptors&#8217; dressing rooms, back-of-house concert spaces and areas the normal fan would never get to see.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-36268 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.briwebapp.net\/2024\/11\/6fcd934a-scotiabank-arena.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"215\" height=\"60\" srcset=\"https:\/\/storage.briwebapp.net\/2024\/11\/6fcd934a-scotiabank-arena.png 1280w, https:\/\/storage.briwebapp.net\/2024\/11\/6fcd934a-scotiabank-arena-768x214.png 768w, https:\/\/storage.briwebapp.net\/2024\/11\/6fcd934a-scotiabank-arena-695x194.png 695w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px\" \/>Tours begin at 9 am daily and go until 6 pm in hourly time slots.
