You not only don't get it, you don't have a [expletive] clue.
1) This the Planet X forum. This question should be on the General astronomy forum.
2) Do you have the slightest grasp of the concept of time zones? :-? The eclipse occurs at 4:12 AM GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) Saturday, May 31st. For the Mountain time zone of northern Canada, this is 11:12PM Friday, May 30th. For the Pacific time zone of northern Canada, this is 10:12PM Friday, May 30th.

Edit to add:
