Permanent Daylight Saving Time: BC's Historic 2026 Move

from The AI Econ Dive · host Wilson x The NotebookLM Team

The wait is over—Vancouver and the rest of BC just sprang forward for the very last time. But what does locking into permanent Daylight Saving Time actually mean for our bodies, our economy, and our borders? In this episode of Deep Dive, we unpack the century-long history of clock manipulation and explore the fierce debate surrounding BC's rogue move. From the serious neurological warnings of sleep scientists to the economic boost for Main Street, we cover it all. Plus, we look at the logistical nightmares unfolding at YVR, the seasonal headaches for Wall Street algorithms, and the geographical absurdity of Point Roberts.
