pike.git/lib/modules/Calendar.pmod/tzdata/northamerica:1819:      # During a period WWII, summer time (Daylight saying) was mandatory in Canada.   # In Creston, that was handled by shifting the area to PST (-8:00) then applying   # summer time to cause the offset to be -7:00, the same as it had been before   # the change. It can be argued that the timezone abbreviation during this   # period should be PDT rather than MST, but that doesn't seem important enough   # (to anyone) to further complicate the rules.      # The transition dates (and times) are guesses.    + # From Matt Johnson (2015-09-21): + # Fort Nelson, BC, Canada will cancel DST this year. So while previously they + # were aligned with America/Vancouver, they're now aligned with + # America/Dawson_Creek. + # http://www.northernrockies.ca/EN/meta/news/archives/2015/northern-rockies-time-change.html + # + # From Tim Parenti (2015-09-23): + # This requires a new zone for the Northern Rockies Regional Municipality, + # America/Fort_Nelson. The resolution of 2014-12-08 was reached following a + # 2014-11-15 poll with nearly 75% support. Effectively, the municipality has + # been on MST (-0700) like Dawson Creek since it advanced its clocks on + # 2015-03-08. + # + # From Paul Eggert (2015-09-23): + # Shanks says Fort Nelson did not observe DST in 1946, unlike Vancouver. +    # Rule NAME FROM TO TYPE IN ON AT SAVE LETTER/S   Rule Vanc 1918 only - Apr 14 2:00 1:00 D   Rule Vanc 1918 only - Oct 27 2:00 0 S   Rule Vanc 1942 only - Feb 9 2:00 1:00 W # War   Rule Vanc 1945 only - Aug 14 23:00u 1:00 P # Peace   Rule Vanc 1945 only - Sep 30 2:00 0 S   Rule Vanc 1946 1986 - Apr lastSun 2:00 1:00 D   Rule Vanc 1946 only - Oct 13 2:00 0 S   Rule Vanc 1947 1961 - Sep lastSun 2:00 0 S   Rule Vanc 1962 2006 - Oct lastSun 2:00 0 S   # Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL]   Zone America/Vancouver -8:12:28 - LMT 1884    -8:00 Vanc P%sT 1987    -8:00 Canada P%sT   Zone America/Dawson_Creek -8:00:56 - LMT 1884    -8:00 Canada P%sT 1947    -8:00 Vanc P%sT 1972 Aug 30 2:00    -7:00 - MST -  + Zone America/Fort_Nelson -8:10:47 - LMT 1884 +  -8:00 Vanc P%sT 1946 +  -8:00 - PST 1947 +  -8:00 Vanc P%sT 1987 +  -8:00 Canada P%sT 2015 Mar 8 2:00 +  -7:00 - MST   Zone America/Creston -7:46:04 - LMT 1884    -7:00 - MST 1916 Oct 1    -8:00 - PST 1918 Jun 2    -7:00 - MST      # Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Yukon      # From Paul Eggert (2006-03-22):   # Dawson switched to PST in 1973.
