Cartoon drawing featuring a woman in bright red bloomers and a men's-style blazer and bow tie riding a bicycle in the foreground, and an old man with a pitchfork losing hat and pitchfork in surprise. Over his head are the words, "What it will come to". At the bottom it says, "Then they WILL be satisfied".

How the change will be made
The Interpretation Amendment Act, which is the legal framework that enables the Province to adopt permanent DST, became law in 2019.
At the time, government chose not to bring it into force in order to coordinate timing with neighbouring U.S. states in the same time zone.
Recent actions from the U.S. have shifted how B.C. approaches decisions that merit alignment, including on time zones. Making this change now reflects the current preferences and needs of British Columbians, and helps ensure the province is well-positioned to thrive, even when circumstances across the border evolve.

My favorite part was parting to let metro buses through but turning all the cars back. Modal filtering!

Near side signals would solve this, right? Is there ever a reason not to use near side signals?
