DST make no sense.

DST argument about saving energy would only work if.

All business were to shut down at 5h30PM.
Everybody went to bed no later then 8h30PM.
TV station stop broadcasting at 9h00PM (automation)
Nobody use AC.

But this is not the case.
So many business close at least at 11h00PM or even are open 24/7.
People go to bed at 11h30PM or 12h00AM or 2h00AM and so on.
So many TV station are 24/7.
Not only the rich have and use AC.

Now
Add the 
following week of lost productivity.
Add the healthcare problem following (more people in hospital, AC work harder, need more machine pluged-in or on to maintain alive or diagnostic).
More people in the Morgue, freezer work harder.

And for those who argue more sunlight to enjoy, i would say this, get up early in the morning instead of noon :-)

in conclusion

A Loonie saved, a Twoonie spent!
