City essentials
Montreal is in Canada and follows America/Toronto, which changes with daylight saving. That seasonal shift matters when you compare Montreal with a city that stays on one offset all year.

Time & prayer in Montreal
Local time in Montreal falls within the America/Toronto zone. The clock and date at the top of this page update live to this timezone, so the readings stay accurate wherever you are.
Sitting at a latitude of about 45.5° in the northern hemisphere, Montreal's day length swings widely, with long summer evenings and short winter afternoons. That is why its sunrise, sunset and day-length figures change from month to month, and why prayer times here follow the position of the sun rather than a fixed clock.
The prayer times shown for Montreal are calculated using the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA). The five daily prayers track the sun, so each one drifts a little earlier or later as the seasons turn. For the full picture you can open the monthly timetable, the live prayer clock, or the Qibla direction for Montreal from the tools on this site.
