Don’t forget! The clocks go back tonight

People will gain an extra hour of sleep tonight.

Daylight saving time ends on November 3 at 2 a.m. This means that early Sunday morning, the clocks will go back an hour.

Some politicians have tried to respect daylight saving time and not change clocks twice a year.

In 2020, a private member’s bill to end the time change in Ontario was passed, but there has been no progress since. To move forward, New York State and Quebec would need to sign on to the project.

With the clocks turning back, firefighters are also encouraging people to change batteries in smoke detectors.
