That stupid "special" timezones in Canada messed up Microsoft (they got their issues for not keeping their record stragith).

This is what happens when a part of country does not follow. China is the other extreme. They got one stupid timezone, so one part of the country is dark AF, but then other side is daylight.

This all comes down to whoever is running the government.

US should also abolish stupid daylight savings, but northern politicians do not want while there is bipartisan agreement to make the savings time permenant.

That bipartisan agreement will evaporate after the first winter on permanent DST and either DST will come back or we'll switch to permanent standard time. That's what usually happens when people try permanent DST.

		Saskatchewan has been on permanent DST for a few decades now and no sign of them planning to go back. (They call it standard time, but it is standard for one timezone over, so effectively DST for their geographical location).

That's a whole lot of stupid!

- Regional time zones? Stupid.

- One time zone for the entire nation? Stupid.

- Daylight Savings Time? Stupid.

- When Western Canada gets rid of DST? You guessed it... stupid!

Everything is stupid!
