Clocks Go Back Tomorrow













Here is one aspect of winter you can look forward to, an extra hour of sleep on Sunday.

Canadian clocks are set to fall back one hour overnight Sunday.

The time change begins at 2 a.m. local time across Canada, except in Newfoundland and Labrador, when the time change starts at one minute after midnight.

In most of Saskatchewan, parts of Quebec, and Southampton Island in Nunavut, people will leave their clocks alone since those places don't use daylight savings time in summer.
For the rest of the country, daylight savings returns in March when clocks are put ahead one hour.

Fire officials are reminding people to also change the batteries in their smoke alarms when they turn their clocks back before bedtime tonight.
