Permanent Daylight Saving Time Debate | Calgary News

from Calgary News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The U.S. House just voted to make daylight saving time permanent—no more springing forward or falling back. While the idea isn’t new (it dates back to wartime energy-saving efforts), sleep experts warn it could disrupt circadian rhythms, raising risks for heart attacks, strokes, car crashes, mood swings, and weight gain. Meanwhile, Canada’s already moving: Yukon did it in 2020, BC is set to ditch seasonal changes by March 8, and Alberta’s reconsidering after a divisive referendum. The U.S. push faces a complex mix of history, health concerns, and regional resistance. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
