Daylight Saving Time was first started in Thunder Bay, Ontario in 1908 to make better use of daylight hours during the summer months. In Spring, we change our clocks ahead 1 hour to get an extra hour of daylight in the evening. 

Other provinces in Canada followed Ontario's lead. The province of Manitoba turned it's clocks forward for the first time on April 24, 1916.

Spring is just around the corner!
