Our province just had a vote on it during municipal elections. The vote was split nearly equal between the two camps... however, the question was whether we should stay on DST year round, which would have put us in Central Time all year. That would have put us 2 hours ahead of the province to the west, British Columbia, in the winter when they would go back to PST in the fall. I think there may have been different results if the vote had been to stay on Standard Time year round.... I could be wrong. Rog voted to have the same time year round... I was in the hospital, so couldn't go vote...
Really wouldn't be any different than AZ staying on Standard Time year round and states around it doing DST.
We're going back into Mountain Standard Time tonight. So now Saskatchewan will be an hour ahead of us, Central Standard Time... and BC will be going back into Pacific Standard Time, an hour behind us. As far as I know, it was always a province by province decision. I would have thought that it was state by state for the US, too.
I found this about AZ on Wikipedia:
Unlike most of the United States, Arizona does not observe daylight saving time (DST), with the exception of the Navajo Nation, which does observe DST. The Hopi Reservation, which is not part of the Navajo Nation but is geographically surrounded by it, also does not observe DST. For this reason, driving the length of Arizona State Route 264 east from Tuba City while DST is in place involves six time zone changes in less than 100 miles (160 km).
Reasoning
Because of Arizona's hot climate, DST is largely considered unnecessary. The argument against extending the daylight hours into the evening is that people prefer to do their activities in the cooler evening temperatures. The Navajo Nation, a semi-autonomous Native American territory, follows the United States DST schedule. It lies in northeastern Arizona, northwestern New Mexico, and southeastern Utah and thus maintains the same time throughout tribal lands despite state borders.

It gets dark too early in the winter on standard time I would prefer daylight savings time all year round.
