In 1965 a provincial +# referendum favoured legislating common time practices. +# +# On 15 April 1966 the Time Act (c. T-14, Revised Statutes of +# Saskatchewan 1978) was proclaimed, and established that the eastern +# part of Saskatchewan would use CST year round, that districts in +# northwest Saskatchewan would by default follow CST but could opt to +# follow Mountain Time rules (thus 1 hour difference in the winter and +# zero in the summer), and that districts in southwest Saskatchewan would +# by default follow MT but could opt to follow CST. +# +# It took a few years for the dust to settle (I know one story of a town +# on one time zone having its school in another, such that a mom had to +# serve her family lunch in two shifts), but presently it seems that only +# a few towns on the border with Alberta (e.g. Lloydminster) follow MT +# rules any more; all other districts appear to have used CST year round +# since sometime in the 1960s. + +# Rule NAME FROM TO TYPE IN ON AT SAVE LETTER/S +Rule Regina 1918 only - Apr 14 2:00 1:00 D +Rule Regina 1918 only - Oct 31 2:00 0 S +Rule Regina 1930 1934 - May Sun>=1 0:00 1:00 D +Rule Regina 1930 1934 - Oct Sun>=1 0:00 0 S +Rule Regina 1937 1941 - Apr Sun>=8 0:00 1:00 D +Rule Regina 1937 only - Oct Sun>=8 0:00 0 S +Rule Regina 1938 only - Oct Sun>=1 0:00 0 S +Rule Regina 1939 1941 - Oct Sun>=8 0:00 0 S +Rule Regina 1942 only - Feb 9 2:00 1:00 D +Rule Regina 1945 only - Sep lastSun 2:00 0 S +Rule Regina 1946 only - Apr Sun>=8 2:00 1:00 D +Rule Regina 1946 only - Oct Sun>=8 2:00 0 S +Rule Regina 1947 1959 - Apr lastSun 2:00 1:00 D +Rule Regina 1947 1958 - Sep lastSun 2:00 0 S +Rule Regina 1959 only - Oct lastSun 2:00 0 S +# +Rule Swift 1957 only - Apr lastSun 2:00 1:00 D +Rule Swift 1957 only - Oct lastSun 2:00 0 S +Rule Swift 1959 1961 - Apr lastSun 2:00 1:00 D +Rule Swift 1959 only - Oct lastSun 2:00 0 S +Rule Swift 1960 1961 - Sep lastSun 2:00 0 S +# Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] +Zone America/Regina -6:58:36 - LMT 1905 Sep + -7:00 Regina M%sT 1960 Apr lastSun 2:00 + -6:00 - CST +Zone America/Swift_Current -7:11:20 - LMT 1905 Sep + -7:00 Canada M%sT 1946 Apr lastSun 2:00 + -7:00 Regina M%sT 1950 + -7:00 Swift M%sT 1972 Apr lastSun 2:00 + -6:00 - CST + + +# Alberta + +# Rule NAME FROM TO TYPE IN ON AT SAVE LETTER/S +Rule Edm 1918 1919 - Apr Sun>=8 2:00 1:00 D +Rule Edm 1918 only - Oct 31 2:00 0 S +Rule Edm 1919 only - May 27 2:00 0 S +Rule Edm 1920 1923 - Apr lastSun 2:00 1:00 D +Rule Edm 1920 only - Oct lastSun 2:00 0 S +Rule Edm 1921 1923 - Sep lastSun 2:00 0 S +Rule Edm 1942 only - Feb 9 2:00 1:00 D +Rule Edm 1945 only - Sep lastSun 2:00 0 S +Rule Edm 1947 only - Apr lastSun 2:00 1:00 D +Rule Edm 1947 only - Sep lastSun 2:00 0 S +Rule Edm 1967 only - Apr lastSun 2:00 1:00 D +Rule Edm 1967 only - Oct lastSun 2:00 0 S +Rule Edm 1969 only - Apr lastSun 2:00 1:00 D +Rule Edm 1969 only - Oct lastSun 2:00 0 S +Rule Edm 1972 1986 - Apr lastSun 2:00 1:00 D +Rule Edm 1972 max - Oct lastSun 2:00 0 S +Rule Edm 1987 max - Apr Sun>=1 2:00 1:00 D +# Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] +Zone America/Edmonton -7:33:52 - LMT 1906 Sep + -7:00 Edm M%sT + + +# British Columbia + +# From Paul Eggert (1996-06-12): +# Shanks writes that since 1970 most of this region has been like Vancouver. +# Dawswon Creek uses MST.
