Daylight Savings Time is absolutely a hassle to everyone!

Posted by Just saying:

Rememberance day and Truth and Reconciliation Day important I agree. Blue-collar make more than me so not sure your point

Posted by Janet :

Time to get rid of daylight savings time and remembrance day, and truth of reconciliation should be for everyone, not federal government, ridiculous that blue collar workers who struggle to make ends meet are the people who don't benefit!

The time change needs to go. Why don't businesses just adjust their work times. Why do we all have to suffer. More accidents and lateness on that Monday after time change. It's still the same amount of daylight, whether the time changes or not.

Stay on DST all year round, forever !

Daylight Savings time is bad for our health.. we should end it. Remembrance Day should be Mandatory everywhere, and so should Truth and Reconciliation Day. Family Day is essentially just a civic holiday, and IMO is beneficial to our health since many people suffer depression during this time of year.

As a vetran it's disappointing that some province's don't respect Remembrance day.

Posted by Mike:

Daylight Savings Time has to go. It's time.

Posted by Canadian Witch:

Remembrance Day should be a stat holiday for every Canadian in every Province and each of the Territories across the country.

Posted by Danielle S.:

National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Remembrance Day should be observed by all the provinces and should not just be limited to Federal Workers. It is important that the newer generation learns and becomes knowledgeable about our history.

Why is it only government to get all the holidays and us nor.al hard working people don't qualify. To me that is being racist as far as I'm concerned.

Posted by John:

Get rid of family day.

Posted by Family Guy:

Is family day observed in every province?

Posted by Karen Daly:

Get rid of daylight savings time. It's costing consumers too much money for hydro!

Posted by Dustan Woodhouse:

The elimination of Daylight Savings Time is a change that ranks second on the above list only to the National observance of Remembrance Day

Posted by Dennis Maguire:

it is misleading to claim that any day is a national holiday if it is not a paid day off or in the case of essential service workers be paid a premium rate such as at least one and one half times their regular hourly rate of pay for the hours worked plus eight hours pay for the day. I believe that all national statutory holidays are paid days off for everyone. Provinces and territories can add additional statutory holidays within their jurisdictions but can not remove national statutory holidays as paid days off within their jurisdictions
