Adopting permanent daylight saving time
‘Spring forward’ on March 8 will be the last time change, ending twice-yearly clock changes
Summary
- B.C. will adopt permanent, year-round daylight saving time after clocks shift forward an hour on Sunday, March 8, 2026
- People and businesses will have eight months to prepare for the elimination of the next time change, previously scheduled for Nov. 1, 2026
- Eliminating twice-yearly time changes reduces disruptions for families, simplifies scheduling and provides an extra hour of evening light during the winter months
