About the time in Québec
Québec 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.
Québec is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC −4 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 1 November 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
Sunrise today lands at 07:02 and sunset at 06:08 local time, giving 11h 06m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (52.00, -72.00) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Québec.
