Except that the timezone in British Columbia has now changed. Lets say you stored the appointment for November in UTC.

So you set the time to 10pm UTC to match 2pm British Columbia. But because the timezone for BC has changed that 10pm now matches 3pm in British Columbia

So the Dentist is expecting you at 2pm and you come along at 3pm
