Daylght Savings time would be better for BC, having standard all year would mean sunrise just after 3am in summer.

You do realize it is an osculating wave of longer and shorter.. The absolute statements people make and the difference the 1 hour makes to a typical person often only last 1 month tops.

Like in the winter O yes I have an hour of sunlight before work, two weeks later as the days continue to get shorter, it is dark at the start of day and dark at the end of the work day.

Winter is a write off in BC, being a rainforest climate it is overcast blanket of cloud or raining for 90% of the winter months, sun doesn't show itself. But for summer we have especially early sunrise, and I would like that shifted to the evening when it is useful. (I realize is fluctuates but whether that is 3am sun or 5am sun, screw that put that at end of day)

I don't care if it is permanent daylight time or permanent standard time just stop flipping the clock twice a year.
