Hey there, time traveller!

Did you remember to set your clocks ahead an hour before going to bed last night?
The seasonal tradition of “springing forward” meant most people in Canada moved their clocks an hour forward, switching to daylight time.
The change happens for much of the country at 2 a.m. local time.
Yukon and most of Saskatchewan keep their clocks the same year-round.
Michael Antle, a University of Calgary psychology professor, says the impacts of the time change will be felt for a while.
But, he says, people can go to bed a little earlier and give themselves extra time in the morning to help combat sleepiness.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published March 10, 2024.
