Destination Facts & Stats

Time Zone

Alberta and Montana are 2 hours behind Eastern Standard Time.

Electricity

An adaptor (which changes the physical plug) and/or converter (which changes the electric current) are necessary if you plan to use an appliance with voltage different from the standard within the country you are visiting. Please note, if your appliance has dual voltage you may still need an adaptor for the plug. When packing your electronic items for travel, please review the converter electric current level to make sure it is the same or greater than the items you are planning on using. If you plan on utilizing or transporting a sleep apnea machine, please remember to pack an extension cord and adapter plug to ensure proper function.

Electricity

Like the USA, Canada uses 110 V, 60 Hz. Therefore, it is not necessary to use an adaptor or converter with appliances and devices from the United States.

Elevation

The highest elevation that you will encounter is approximately 7,500 ft above sea level.
