0:00Alberta's premier Danielle Smith just dropped the news that the province is killing off those annoying twice a year clock changes. They're locking in daylight saving time all year round, so no more springing forward or falling back. That means legislation hits the table later this week to make it official. On the ground, winters will have darker mornings, but brighter evenings for longer. Folks have been gripping about the disruptions for years, and this follows a public consultation the government kicked off last month. It's a direct nod to British Columbia, which already went permanent daylight time. The shift aims to smooth out daily life, cutting confusion around sleep schedules and work starts. Smith says it's what most Albertans want after hearing their feedback. Now the clock stay put, letting everyone adjust to one steady rhythm without the hassle.
