Most Canadians set to turn their clocks back an hour on the morning of Nov. 3 .

Then, they will set them forward again on March 9 , knocking their circadian rhythm out of whack.

The daily cycle of light and dark the “sun clock” is only tangentially related to the social clock’.

In 2020 , Yukon opted to observe daylight time year-round, meaning that in the capital of Whitehorse , the sun doesn’t rise until 11 a.m. The case for daylight time is mostly related to business: if the sun is out later in the evening , people will stay out later and spend money.

In addition to the Yukon, Saskatchewan and Quebec don't change their clocks.
