They essentially fixed this issue by having all polls close from Quebec’s to Alberta close at the same time and then BC 1hr later.
So Ontario is 9:30 - 9:30 and we are 7:30-7:30 and BC is 7:30 - 7:30 (all local times)
It’s hard to get counting done at a reasonable time and no leaks with all the scrutineers so this seems like a reasonable compromise
