Vedic astrology for a Richmond BC birth with daylight saving
Vedic astrology for a Richmond BC birth uses America/Vancouver and observes daylight saving, and the BC name keeps it off other cities called Richmond. Richmond BC is not timed on Europe/London, and a summer birth uses the America/Vancouver daylight saving offset. A Richmond in Britain would take British Summer Time. This one does not. Locate Richmond BC, and apply the America/Vancouver offset in minutes before the Julian day.

Which Richmond the clock belongs to
The spelling Richmond is not a zone by itself. Richmond BC observes daylight saving on America/Vancouver. It is not on Europe/London, and it is not on the America/New_York zone used by the Richmond in the United States. A summer birth here uses the daylight saving offset of America/Vancouver. A winter birth uses that zone's standard offset.
Vancouver the city is still next door
America/Vancouver is the zone. If the certificate says Richmond BC, locating the city of Vancouver is the wrong place, even though daylight saving matches. The sidereal chart uses Lahiri ayanamsa and Swiss Ephemeris. Marriage is the 7th house, its lord, and D9 Navamsa. Career is the 10th house and its lord.
