When Canadian Coast Guard stations broadcast marine forecasts and warnings on MF and HF, on the timelines of your cities and in your own time zone.
The calendar covers three coasts. On the Atlantic, Halifax broadcasts for Nova Scotia in English and French, Placentia for Newfoundland and Labrador Coast Guard Radio for the Labrador Sea. In the Arctic, Iqaluit broadcasts for the waters of Nunavut and the Northwest Territories on both MF and HF, from a chain of remote transmitters. On the Pacific, Prince Rupert covers northern British Columbia. Each broadcast reads the marine forecasts and warnings for the station’s areas.
Canada spans six time zones, from Newfoundland at UTC−3:30 to the Pacific at UTC−8, and most of the country changes its clocks twice a year. Broadcast times are published in UTC; this calendar follows the EiBi schedule and places each broadcast at its local time in each of your cities.
