Date and time notation in Canada
Date and time notation in Canada combines conventions from the United Kingdom, conventions from the United States, and conventions from France, often creating confusion. The Government of Canada specifies the ISO 8601 format for all-numeric dates (YYYY-MM-DD; for example, 2024-04-20). It recommends writing the time using the 24-hour clock (16:53) for maximum clarity in both Canadian English and Canadian French, but also allows the 12-hour clock (4:53 p.m.) in English.
