Howdy, Merv.

  Just out of curiosity, when you right-click the clock, and slide up to 'Show 
Timezone >' on the menu that appears, does it say 
'America/Toronto' (checked)?  If so, try changing that to 'Local Timezone' 
and see if that makes a difference.  If that doesn't work, try 'America/New 
York' in the 'Configure Timezones' option - it's the same timezone.
