For me it's complicated by the fact I have projects in Saskatchewan and Yukon, so the Daylight vs. Standard Time distinction actually is important. It's not enough to just say "Mountain Time" to people in Whitehorse: they're on "Mountain Time" all year. I had a conference call with people in Whitehorse just yesterday, and I had to remind the person organizing it last week that Alberta would be rolling back to MST on Sunday anyway, so they didn't have to distinguish MST vs. MDT when picking a time for the call.
