Hi, I'm writing to enquire about this news article you wrote back in November:
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/nunavik-daylight-savings-9.6969650 >From what I gathered while reading the article, Nunavik would not change their clocks back to normal time in the fall, after this summer's daylight savings, staying permanently on "normal" time. This has significant implication in the software world: changes like this must be coordinated across different engineers. Specifically, the "Time Zone Database" (tzdb) needs to be updated to reflect those changes. Right now, the only information regarding this change is your news article, and it doesn't make it solidly clear that this is actually happening. I have actually tried calling Makivvik and, while people were busy with a meeting there, the secretary that answered didn't seem aware of the change. This makes me doubt the change will actually happen. Do you have more information about the upcoming change? Anyone we could contact to confirm this information first hand?
