Times for Montreal, Quebec, Canada (America/Toronto, EDT today), computed from local sunrise and sunset on the fixed-prahar convention. Some sanghs reckon these as fractions of daylight instead, which gives slightly different times; follow your own sangh’s panchang for a vow.
For Jain families in Canada
Summer evenings, early winter sunsets and daylight saving make pachkhan abroad different every month. Compare cities, read the practical guide, and connect with Jains who live where you do.
