British Columbia passed a law that they're done with biennial DST changes starting next year and a bunch of people are fauxpset that they picked "permanent DST" as the solution instead of "permanent standard time."
As someone who, for a long time, was in charge of scheduling games for his local baseball association, let me tell you that "permanent standard time" would be a disaster for summer-time organized sports. All of your fields without lights would instantly become pretty much unusable if the sun sets at 7:30 instead of 8:30 in July.
Your circadian rhythms will be fine, you ninnies -- your young parents won't be if Jimmy can't play his favourite game any more because his local municipal budget doesn't have any money to install floodlights.
