# Quebec
! # From Paul Eggert (2013-08-30):
! # Since 1970 most of Quebec has been like Toronto.
! # However, because earlier versions of the tz database mistakenly relied on data
! # from Shanks & Pottenger saying that Quebec differed from Ontario after 1970,
! # a separate entry was created for most of Quebec. We're loath to lose
! # its pre-1970 info, even though the tz database is normally limited to
! # zones that differ after 1970, so keep this otherwise out-of-scope entry.

# Matthews and Vincent (1998) also write that Quebec east of the -63
# meridian is supposed to observe AST, but residents as far east as
# Natashquan use EST/EDT, and residents east of Natashquan use AST.
