Time to do away with changing clocks

-

I guess I can no longer say I don’t agree with anything the NDP is doing. Changing our clocks twice a year should have been done away with a long time ago.

More accidents, missed meetings, lost productivi­ty, and my personal favourite, dragging your children out of bed to catch that 6 a.m. school bus, are a few of the results of clock change.

Simply put us one hour behind Saskatchew­an which never changes its clocks. If British Columbia continues to change clocks, we will be either one hour ahead of them or on the same time as them. In 2017, do not allow us to “spring ahead” or after we “fall back,” just leave it there. It is not rocket science. Get it done. Dan Petryk, Calgary
