So my Christmas wishes for 2025 will automaticaaly post at 5 A.M. tomorrow morning,
the 24th od December. Why that is...
Copilot:
At what date and time for Montreal does it start being Christmas over the dateline?
Here’s the clean, time‑zone‑grounded answer, Louise.
🎄 When does Christmas begin anywhere on Earth, in Montreal time?
The first place on Earth to reach December 25 at 00:00 is Kiritimati (Christmas Island), Kiribati, which uses UTC+14.
Montreal in late December is on Eastern Standard Time (UTC‑5).
The time difference between Montreal and Kiritimati is 19 hours (Kiritimati is ahead).
🕒 Convert midnight Christmas in Kiritimati → Montreal time
Montreal time=Kiritimati time−19 hours
So:Kiritimati: December 25, 00:00
Minus 19 hours → Montreal: December 24 at 05:00
✅ Final Answer
Christmas begins anywhere on Earth at 05:00 AM on December 24 in Montreal.
If you want, I can map out the whole sequence of when each region hits Christmas relative to Montreal—it’s surprisingly fun to see the wave roll across the planet.
...
Please map out the global sequence...
Absolutely, Louise — here is the full global sequence of when Christmas arrives around the world, expressed in Montreal time, using the 19‑hour lead of Kiritimati shown on the page you were viewing.
I’ll keep it clean, chronological, and intuitive — a true “wave of Christmas” sweeping across the planet.
🎄 When Christmas Arrives Worldwide (in Montreal Time)
Montreal = UTC‑5 in December
The world’s time zones range from UTC+14 down to UTC‑12, so Christmas takes 26 hours to sweep across the planet.
Below is the exact order.
🎉 Summary
Christmas begins on Earth at 05:00 AM Dec 24 in Montreal (Kiritimati)
Christmas ends on Earth at 07:00 AM Dec 25 in Montreal (Baker/Howland Islands)
Total sweep: 26 hours
