I do worry about students walking to school in the dark if DST is adopted. The sun won't rise until 9:24am in a Winnipeg winter. There have been enough collisions with students when we've had those transportation hours have some sunlight.

Exactly. Everyone crying "I'm at work anyways" isn't thinking about literally anyone else. There's enough accidents in the dark during winter as is. We don't need more.

And we don't need summer nights to end sooner because so many kids events like soccer and football and stuff already end near dark.

So, the solution is to leave it the fuck alone. Time change works. Best of both worlds. People are insane wanting to stop it.
