Why Kanton has its own time
Kiribati spans 3 time zones, so the answer depends on where in it you mean. Kanton covers Phoenix Islands and is 1 hour ahead Tarawa, which is the zone most people mean by “the time in Kiribati”.
Kanton does not observe daylight saving, so its offset from UTC never moves. Its relationship to places that do change shifts twice a year instead.
