We might expect that if the legislative intent was for the entirety of Baja California to use the U. S. rules, the legislation would have been written more simply.
That being said, it's certainly possible (or even probable) that de facto the entirety of Baja California uses U. S. rules, regardless of de jure.
Providentially, we're coming up on the days when a few international phone calls (or, if possible, monitoring radio or TV stations) can shed light on the matter.
Not sure if this casts light or mud on the issue, but last year (Feb '14) I contacted a business on Isla Cedros (which is in Baja) about the local time, and received this reply (relevant passage underscored):
Mr Jones Thank you for coming to us for the answer. Cedros island is governed by the Baja California State, therefore most of the time it has the same time zone Pacific shared by California. But, thanks to bureaucrats sitting behind their desks with nothing better to do than to complicate the lives of their citizens ....... Sorry...... sometimes after the time change in the US the time zone is different than California, but is not for more than a week, when its similar to Mountain time/ Baja Sur..... I know, what a pain.... There is no ferry services for passengers from Bahia Tortugas to Cedros. I hope this helps. Salud! Jose Angel Sanchez Cedros Outdoor Adventures
So it sounds like the actual implementation may not extend all the way down to the Baja/Baja Sur border. Regards, Steve Jones
