Why people convert Edmonton to PST time

Scheduling a call from Edmonton to PST: a 10:00 AM start in Edmonton lands at 8:00 AM in PST, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Finding shared working hours: both Edmonton and PST are inside the 9-to-5 working day between 11:00 AM and 5:00 PM MDT time (9:00 AM–3:00 PM PST). That is roughly 6 hours of usable overlap.
Watching a live event or market open: Edmonton viewers need 7:00 AM in PST to catch a 9:00 AM start there, and 2:00 AM if the event is anchored to Edmonton.
