Why are analog clocks set to show the time as 10 minutes past 10 when they are on display in stores?
- It's all to do with marketing. Clock and watch designers commonly put their brand name directly below the 12 on a watch face. Positioning the watch hands at 10:10 creates a wedge that draws the eye upward, displays both hands and, most importantly, showcases the brand!
- The consensus of opinion (some internet references quote this as confirmed by Timex) is that clock and watch hands in advertisements are typically set at 10:10 so that the company's logo will be well-displayed.
- Watches in advertisements and in shop windows all have the time of 10 past 10 because it creates a smile-like shape. 10 is a feel good number- so 10:10 leaves one feeling warm and fuzzy and lucky. This attracts more customers as the watch looks "happy".
- Actually a French clock-maker asserted that all the clocks were set at 10 past 10 to honor the memory of the Sun King, Louis the 14th who was, he said, beheaded at that exact moment which is obviously wrong since that very king was not beheaded, but affections remain high for this king who loved clocks so much that he turned the royal clock-makers into aristocrats, noblemen.

What time does Canada Day start?
Evenings start (this applies anywhere in the world) at various times, depending on the season. Seasons are caused by the Earth tilting, causing different areas to have more or less sunshine, affecting sunsets and sunrises (morning and evening).
When night and day are approximately of equal length occurs twice per year.
In the northern hemisphere these days are called the Vernal Equinox (20-21 March) and the Autumnal Equinox (22-23 September).
However, as these seasons are reversed in the southern hemisphere, current usage is the March Equinox and the September Equinox.

After reviewing some data from Encarta based on the amount of sunlight on the 15th of each month, I have found there to be 4,518h 5m of daylight in a year along the 40 degree latitude in the Northern Hemisphere. This number is a rough estimate, but should provide some insight to your question.
