Microsoft calendars can be an hour off after a Canadian clock change. A fix for recurring meetings has no date yet.
Parts of British Columbia, Alberta and Manitoba stopped changing their clocks on 1 November.
Microsoft has confirmed wrong times and broken schedules across several products, The Register reported.
In Outlook, switching to the new time zones does not update existing entries. Only the organiser can correct a shared meeting. A repair tool for one-off meetings is due later this week; the recurring-meeting fix is still "in development", with no date.
Power Automate and Fabric users have been told to select another time zone temporarily. The alternatives include Saskatchewan and Arizona, or Bogota for Manitoba. SharePoint on-premises gets the new zones on 10 November. Power Pages dates can remain an hour out until a fix planned for 12 December.
Microsoft published its guidance on 26 October, less than a week before the change, and was still adding products four days later. One admin on Reddit said fixing Outlook took roughly 900 lines of PowerShell.
For admins, that means checking product by product until each fix lands.
