BC will move to permanent daytime time

So you guys already have December where the sunrise isn't until ~9AM, so kids get to school fine in the dark?

Ontario, the "latest" sunrise is ~8AM in December, so most people here say kids won't be able to walk to school in the dark if it was instead ~9AM.
I spent my entire childhood catching the bus in the dark for Dec/Jan, it really was never a big deal. Having some sunlight to look forward to at the end of the day is a much better feeling than it being dark both before and after school/work.

At least that is how I see it.

Definitely agree. As a kid I would have much preferred extra light after school. I'd actually go outside later in the day, at no point was I ever keen to get up and go outside before school

I lived in YK as a kid and during the worst. During December you basically got 1st recess just as sunrise was starting, sun at lunch, then it was starting to set on your way home :S
 
It's going to make some changes in construction. Our guys start at 7 most of the year, then 7:30 during the dark months. We will either have to supply task lighting with a generator for the first couple of hours or they will have to work 9-5 Nov - Jan.

Industrial construction is pretty used to having to supply lights so it's not something I considered for commercial/residential.

Used to have a stead stream of light towers and plants set up for most sites for about 1/4 of the year, maybe longer

It's an hour difference. Why do you need to adjust by 2 hours?
 
We work 8-4 in December and January already because of sunrise time. The guys have about 15 minutes of toolbox meetings and prep in the morning, it's light enough to start work by 8:15. It won't be now.
