“This Guns For Hire, Even If We’re Just Dancing In The Dark”
A Brief Commentary by Doug Draper
Posted November 3rd, 2025 on Niagara At Large
It’s bad enough that ‘the boys of summer’ have played their last game of the year and that our team lost – I’m talkin’ about the Blue Jays losing the World Series to the Los Angeles Dodgers, of course – but just to add to the misery, this November 2nd we had to turn our clocks back an hour and it starts getting dark out there at 5 p.m.
I don’t know about you, but I don’t much care for living like a mushroom. And man, as we approach the first day of winter a few weeks for now, it is just going to keep getting darker.
It’s time our politicians across this country of Canada and others put an end to this business of changing the clocks back and forth every sixth months, especially given the mounting research that shows it isn’t good for our mental and physical health.
