# Egypt will start DST on midnight after Thursday, April 30, 2015.

# This is based on a law (no 35) from May 15, 2014 saying it starts the last

# Thursday of April.... Clocks will still be turned back for Ramadan, but

# dates not yet announced....

# Egypt's ministers cabinet just announced ... that it will cancel DST at

# "Egypt's cabinet agreed on Monday not to switch clocks for daylight saving

# time this summer, and carry out studies on the possibility of canceling the

# practice altogether in future years."

#

# From Paul Eggert (2015-04-20):

# For now, assume DST will be canceled. Any resumption would likely

# use different rules anyway.

# From Paul Eggert (2015-03-24):

# Since 1970 most of Quebec has been like Toronto; see

# America/Toronto. However, earlier versions of the tz database

# mistakenly relied on data from Shanks & Pottenger saying that Quebec

# differed from Ontario after 1970, and the following rules and zone

# were created for most of Quebec from the incorrect Shanks &

# Pottenger data. The post-1970 entries have been corrected, but the

# pre-1970 entries are unchecked and probably have errors.
