Canada first observed Daylight Savings Time in 1908.
That is the practice of setting clocks forward one hour from Standard Time during the summer months, and then setting clocks back an hour in the fall.
This gives people more light in the morning and makes better use of natural daylight.
At 2 a.m. this Sunday November 6 many Canadians will set their clocks back one hour.
The only areas in Canada that do NOT change their clocks are Saskatchewan, the Yukon, some locations in Quebec, Southampton Islands and some areas of British Columbia.
