I struggle with the concept of DST.
I don’t want a 8:30 sunrise in the winter, but I also want as much sunshine in the evening as possible.

J’ai de la misère avec le concept d’heure avancée.Je ne veux pas un lever de soleil à 8h30 en hiver, mais je veux aussi du soleil le plus longtemps possible le soir.

@EdwinG yea. There's pros and cons each way. Depends a lot on location too.

@EdwinG Commute between Canadian Arctic between March & September, and Antarctica between September & March.
The closer to Equator you are, the less there are seasonal variations in lenght of day, but then you get your sunset at about 18:00 every day and when the sun drops, it drops fast and gets dark very fast.
Don't complain about DST complain about the conspiracy the Earth is a sphere with 23.44° axial tilt. Back in the day when science agreed Earth was flat there was no such problem.

@EdwinG During one of my trips to Inuvik, I had to call someone in Western Europe in their early morning. (past midnight at Eagle Plains YK).
To me, the sun was to the north, to them, the sun was south-east. Hard to believe we were on same planet !
You need to learn to live with daytime of varying duration.

@jfmezei If I was not stuck with the -30° weather, it would be much easier!

@EdwinG Summer days are long anyway. This stupid change only matters in the winter. People will be upset later this year.
Sunrise will be at 09:05 on 1 January.

@edwiebe Having a sunset around 19:45 is too early in my book
Even 20:45 is too early, I prefer 22-23:00
