British Columbia to end time changes, adopt year-round daylight time

I don't get how having "random" things change opening hours is any better than changing clocks.

I'm not a parent, but I can imagine that if some of my schedule had to change by 30 minutes some months out of the year, I'd find it more inconvenient.

What if school starts/ends at a different time but my job does not?

What if I have a standing appointment at a business that keeps its hours year round that now conflicts with one that changed to winter hours?

It seems more like a different set of problems than a solution.

It is completely obvious to me. There is only one uniform time, and thousands of arguments for what is a good time to do this or that. Reschedule things to work better. Don't force everything else according to some most important thing

How is "rescheduling some things" a solution and not a different problem?
