there is an extra timezone to the East of Canada that the US doesn't have that currently overlaps with Brazil Eastern. You're missing a spot.

I mean, if you want to argue that Halifax

That spot is Labrador and Newfoundland, not Nova Scotia (where Halifax is located). Labrador and Newfoundland are islands, not mainland, and not even as significant as the British Isles. They're like Hawai'i which I also didn't count.

I'm unreasonably

Exactly. And I need my energy elsewhere. Bye.

You are, again, factually incorrect. Dude, it's fine, you missed a spot, it's not the end of the world.

It is, as of this writing, 06:32 in Halifax.

It is, as of this writing, 06:33 in Sao Paulo. Took me a minute to look it up.

This is easily available information. All I did at the top of this thread is pull a real time timezone map. I didn't know this off the top of my head, obviously, I'm not THAT much of a nerd.

You were ever so slightly wrong on the internet. On a technicality. It happens. It didn't need to be a flame war.
