  • Finding shared working hours: both WET and Toronto are inside the 9-to-5 working day between 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM WET time (9:00 AM–1:00 PM EDT). That is roughly 4 hours of usable overlap.
  • Keeping family and friends in sync: knowing that 8:00 PM in WET is 4:00 PM in Toronto makes it easy to avoid calling at 3 AM.
