Toronto is still quite resembling a ski town after a barrage of snowstorms that have made this season feel like the first proper Canadian winter we've had in a while.The City has since said cleanup efforts are set to take a few weeks, and while residents are climbing over snowbanks and navigating narrow sidewalks in the meantime, it can be hard to imagine that spring is just around the corner.And, even before springtime officially kicks off on March 20, Ontario will be treated to some later sunsets that will be a welcome change to the depths of winter that we are just emerging from.The days have been getting longer since the winter solstice on December 21, and we've since made it past the 10 the darkest weeks of what is, for many, the most dispiriting season.In just over two weeks, clocks will "spring forward" an hour, marking the start of another cycle of Daylight Saving Time, and bringing with it an extra hour of daylight in the evening...
