We spring forward this weekend as the clocks are pushed back an hour to adjust for Daylight Saving Time on Sunday morning.

This is the difficult one where people lose an hour of sleep on Sunday and will likely continue to feel that during the week.

Experts say it can also harm your health and increase the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

Canadians have long debated about making daylight saving permanent, meaning we wouldn’t fall back anymore in the winter.

Both Ontario and British Columbia have considered this in the last five years but the provinces can only move ahead if the U.S. states below them also follow suit.

Yukon and Saskatchewan are the only territory and province that keep its clocks the same year round.

Experts suggest going to bed about 15 to 20 minutes earlier in the two days before to help adjust with the time change.

You can also get some sun exposure to regulate your circadian rhythm and get some well needed vitamin D.

Daylight Saving Time kicks in at 2 a.m. on Sunday.
