It's true. Here in Calgary, the sun is going down suspiciously later than it is in Toronto at this time of year. Doing a tad of research (i.e., typing "sunrise sunset" into Google) I came up with this link which states very clearly that the sun will set in Toronto today at 8:56 p.m. (quite reasonable for this time of year) while here you have to wait until 9:47 p.m.
That explains why I sat in the backyard at, say 9:30 or 10:00 p.m. recently (wearing heavy clothing) reading a book. Aha! So it's not due to the Aurora Borealis or the lights of downtown Calgary, or the distant glow of wildcat fires in the oil fields. It's the sun! Still up!!
Furthermore this explains why, when we hit the sack these days (we're early-to-bedders), someone forgets to douse the lights outside our house.
