Standard time in each of them: Eastern (Toronto): UTC−5; Central (Winnipeg): UTC−6; Mountain (Edmonton): UTC−6; Pacific (Vancouver): UTC−7; Atlantic (Halifax): UTC−4; Newfoundland (St. John's): UTC−3:30. The table on this page shows the current time in all of them. Canada is normally 5 hours behind London. For a few weeks a year (4 hours behind) the difference changes, because the clocks are changed on different dates. (this is for the main time zone: Eastern (Toronto))
