Don't go changing? Alberta MLA wants to drop daylight saving time http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/alberta-mla-daylight-saving-1.3990569
Bill is still on the legislative schedule for March with widespread support.
Latest: Time hasn't run out on Alberta debate about twice-yearly clock changes, premier says http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/alberta-daylight-saving-clocks-rachel... "[A]n all-party legislature committee unanimously rejected a private member's bill that proposed ditching the twice-yearly time change in Alberta." "The five-member committee said the bill has merits in terms of health, but decided there would be too much of an economic impact on business at a delicate time." "I think it was about 20,000 Albertans, maybe more, who responded, and the vast majority were in favour of moving forward on it," the premier said. "MLAs will get another chance to debate the bill in the legislature. "I still think there are questions to be asked and some deliberations to be done," Notley said, not long after the committee rejected the bill. "I also believe it's still a pretty open vote in the legislature, and the matter's not over yet." -- Take care. Thanks, Brian Inglis, Calgary, Alberta, Canada
