Time in Nunavut

As late October 1999 approached the city council backed down and agreed to accept the change to Central time "in the spirit of working with the Nunavut government".

After some debate it was decided the far western communities would be allowed to change back to Central time on November 4, 2000.

This would unify Nunavut with one time in the summer and keep western communities a constant one-hour difference from their southern neighbours.

On November 6, 2000, the territorial government announced that Kugluktuk and Cambridge Bay would be the only two communities that would continue to change their clocks twice a year.
