Not falling back means time loop remains unclosed

This year, Manitoba is set to adopt permanent daylight time, which means residents will not lose that hour of sleep in the spring that they gain in the fall as they previously did with the traditional time change. With this change, the time loop that occurs with the seasonal clock adjustments will remain unclosed. The shift to permanent daylight time allows for an extra hour of sunlight in the evening during winter, while still keeping late summer sunsets.
While some may lament the loss of a time change, the author argues that people have the ability to manipulate time just as they did with the clock changes, and encourages the enjoyment of the extra hour for any purpose, whether it be productive or recreational.
