I live in one of the towns in BC that just didn't observe DST before this new time zone thing.

There is no issue, I'm not sure what you're getting at. Time zones and DST are arbitrary, people just get used to them.

It is amazing how Saskatchewan has always been able to figure it out, and how the Yukon figured it out years ago. Now I know BC has a bigger population than the 2 combined but I am sure they will figure things out, and easily.

How do I figure it will be easy to figure out? Besides for the Yukon being able to do it let me tell you a story: I was in university and had just got a new phone, for whatever reason it was set to Manitoba’s time zone. One Monday I slept in longer than I was expecting, or slept to my normal time I do not remember, my alarm went off I looked at my phone and got ready for the day rather fast and to the university. I got to the classroom and opened the door expecting to apologize for being late, it was a 300 level class so there would have been at most 12 people in the room. Turns out I burst into a class that I was not taking, my class did not start for another hour, I looked at my laptop and I looked at my phone then realized that time changed in Manitoba. I fixed the time zone on my phone and it was easy peasy I did not need to worry about it again.

Better than it going dark before 5PM.
