UCP Leader Jason Kenney is being accused of discouraging young Albertans from entering politics after a video of him referring to an NDP candidate as being 19 years old surfaced online.

As Albertans ardently debate whether to keep changing their clocks, the government estimates that a referendum on a bill about ending the twice-yearly time change would cost millions.

A government committee determined Albertans will have until late July to provide written submissions about whether the province should get off Daylight Saving Time. 

A bill to put Alberta on Central Time all year round instead of on Mountain Time will get further study by a legislature committee.

Alberta Premier Rachel Notley says ending time change in Alberta is a good idea. She says the only problem is deciding which way to switch.

The days of Albertans changing their clocks twice a year could soon be coming to an end.

An Alberta MLA who is pushing for the province to stick with daylight saving time year round said the idea is generating interest.

An Edmonton man living abroad was forced to eat his words - or in this case, his hat - after his friend became the youngest MLA elected to the Alberta Legislature.
