The government section is a mess
Towards the end, after it gets into policing, I cant even... Obviously people have just been making minor edits and additions over years and now its just an unstructured hodgepodge of random outdated info.
Somebody needs to revise the whole thing to give it, if not a point, than at least chronology. 2604:3D08:7F89:6100:87E1:90A1:EE94:516D (talk) 00:31, 18 October 2025 (UTC)

“Change time zone to UTC -07:00. Also remove summer time. Most of British Columbia has now switched to year long UTC -07:00” ~2025-41256-36 (talk) 06:06, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want made. {{GearsDatapack|talk|contribs}} 16:03, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
- “B.C.’s transition to one year-round time zone will begin after the province “springs forward” on Sunday, March 8, 2026, when clocks move ahead by one hour. This will be the final time change in British Columbia.”
- ” At that point, the transition to Pacific time, the name of B.C.’s new time zone, will be complete.
- Pacific time will be set seven hours behind co-ordinated universal time (UTC-7), matching the current offset used during daylight saving time.”

Include at least one link to Canada in the lede and the infobox
Regarding my reverted edit from March 18: I realize that Canada is a common term, but there's really no reason not to include any links to the Canada page, is there? As a supporting example, the page for Paris links to France in its lede and infobox. @Joeyconnick Theolaa (talk) 02:37, 14 April 2026 (UTC)
- We don't generally link country names per MOS:OL. Similarly, MOS:GEOLINK. —Joeyconnick (talk) 04:55, 14 April 2026 (UTC)
