Nova Scotia to Change Daylight Saving Time
Department of Justice
April 25, 2006 13:18
Daylight saving time will start three weeks earlier in the
spring and will last one week longer in the fall, beginning 2007.
The Department of Justice is making amendments to the regulations of
the Time Definition Act to ensure that Nova Scotia is in sync when
the United States extends its daylight saving time in 2007.
"The fact that we have co-ordinating time zones with the U.S. is a
draw when we are attracting business to this province," said Justice
Minister Murray Scott. "Not changing would also likely result in
difficulties for our agricultural and fisheries producers, causing
transportation, shipping and border difficulties."
Starting in 2007, daylight time will begin on the second Sunday in
March and will end on the first Sunday in November. Most of the
other provinces that use daylight time will also be implementing the
change.
Staying in sync with U.S. daylight time will ensure that banking and
other business transactions with businesses in other parts of the
country and the U.S. will not be impacted. This is especially
important for scheduled transportation services -- including
airline, buses and rail. In addition to economic benefits, Nova
Scotians will enjoy a bit more daylight during the long winter
months.
"Many Nova Scotia businesses depend on a productive relationship
with the United States," said Mr. Scott. "The decision to be
consistent will ensure that there is no disruption in our
relationship with our chief trading partner, while providing
benefits for our agriculture and fishing sectors." |
