You could try this:
http://www.worldtimeserver.com/current_time_in_CA-QC.aspx
Your time info is here in the html it returns (example):
                                        <div id="analog-digital">
                                            <span class="font7">
                                                5:10 PM
                                            </span>
                                        </div>
                                        <strong>

                                        <br />
                                        <span class="font1">
                                            Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) -0400 UTC
Isolate this from the rest of the source and filter out the lines that begin with <, and you'll have what you're looking for. If you want a different city, just select one 
from the list and copy that URL.
