Three time zones in Eastern Canada
In Eastern Canada we are dealing with the time zones Atlantic, Newfoundland and Eastern Standard Time. Nunavut spans four time zones and some provinces have minor overlaps with other time zones. In total, their are six time zones in Canada. In Canada, daylight saving time applies from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November, whereby this is synchronized with the USA. However, since the time change in Europe takes place on different dates, the time difference here changes by +/- 1 hour for a few days.
Four and a half to six hours of time difference in Eastern Canada are still quite manageable, since you will win these hours. On the trip back to Europe it becomes more problematic. Maybe you should plan another one or two days to get used to it, until you are feeling right again. Here are a few tips on jet lag.
