I still maintain that if people want another hour in the evening, they 
can get up an hour earlier.  Why do they think they need to change the 
clocks?  Some people just can't deal with reality and need someone else 
to make their decisions for them.  OK, I will step off my soapbox now.  :-)

Since the borders are political rather than purely geographical, the
obvious answer is to put the data in the GPS receiver's map database. It
has both the relevant borderlines and the most frequent update strategy.

Take this over to the IANA tz list where even there they will assert
that the last sentence is beyond their purview and therefore "somebody
else's problem".  Better strategy is to sync the clock to cell phone
signals and let that "somebody else" be the phone company who are at

Think the idea is to have the entire west coast from Alaska, BC and all the way 
down to California on one time zone. What I am not sure is how they incorporate 
this time change into electronic devices that auto adjust. If software driven

In Canada apparently DST can be amended at the provincial level. Ongoing right 
now in BC is to follow what the Yukon is doing and get away from DST, but with 
trade to our neighbours to the south it's preferable everyone be the same. As I 
understand Washington and Oregon and I think California are following suit but 
require congress approval. If approved by Congress then BC will follow through.
