We\u2019ll set our clocks back one hour this weekend, but Quebec could be looking to make this the last time we have to change them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quebec Premier Paul St-Pierre Plamondon says his government plans to end the twice-a-year clock change, arguing it can disrupt health and make it harder for children to adjust. But the province hasn\u2019t decided whether to keep daylight time or standard time year-round. Experts will be consulted before a final decision, and the change scheduled for this weekend will still go ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This could also affect Ontario. The province passed a law back in 2020 to keep daylight time year-round, but it\u2019s been on hold until Quebec and New York are ready to make the same move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
