Canadian sleep scientists' call to end clock changes

Also: Time change advocacy (Canadian Sleep Research Consortium)

Canadian sleep and body-clock researchers, led by the Canadian Sleep Research Consortium with the Canadian Sleep Society and the Canadian Society for Chronobiology, are pressing governments to stop changing the clocks and stay on standard time all year. They have published reviews, a brief to the Quebec government, a 2026 joint statement asking Ottawa to hold a pan-Canadian conference, webinars and a booklet for teens.
