Permanent daylight saving time

Last updated on March 4, 2026

B.C. is adopting permanent year-round daylight saving time (DST) to improve people’s overall health, reduce disruptions for families, simplify scheduling and provide an extra hour of evening light during the winter months.

The transition to one year-round time zone will begin after the province “springs forward” on Sunday, March 8, 2026, when clocks move ahead by one hour. This will be the final time change in British Columbia. People and businesses will have eight months to prepare for Nov. 1, 2026, when clocks would usually be turned back, but now will remain the same. At that point, the transition to Pacific time, the name of B.C.’s new time zone, will be complete.

For the majority of people in B.C. there are no immediate actions. Many clocks will automatically “spring forward” an hour as usual on Sunday, March 8, 2026. On Nov. 1, 2026, when previously clocks would have been turned back an hour, no change will be made, and the adjustment will not be required.

Pacific time will be set seven hours behind co-ordinated universal time (UTC-7), matching the current offset used during daylight saving time.

Why permanent DST makes sense for B.C.

In summer 2019, the Province conducted a public engagement on time observance that saw participation from a record 223,000 people, with 93% supporting adopting year-round DST. Similarly, across all industry groups and nearly all occupational groups, support for year-round DST observance was higher than 90%.
