He and other community leaders met with the local MPP (Member of Provincial Parliament) to decide what to do." Said Poirier, "the consensus in the meeting was 'let's take a look at the Manitoba model'." While Ontario Premier Doug Ford's office maintains in a press statement that the original 2020 condition tying potential abolition of seasonal time changes to New York and Québec doing the same "remains [their] position", Poirier says that the provincial government "understand we're in a different part of the province" and asserts that "it's literally up to us as a municipality to…make that decision to change or stay". -- Tim Parenti
