About the time in Ontario
Ontario sits at latitude 49.25, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 12m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Ontario runs on America/Toronto, which puts the city UTC −4 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Ontario day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 13:00–21:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
