The Sun rises in the east, all around the world. Answer:In Canada, like the rest of the world, the direction of sunrise depends on the time of year. It only raises in the East (anywhere) at the equinoxes. This is due to the 23.44° tilt of the Earth to the orbital plane.
In the very far north of Canada (North of 67o) it does not rise at some times of the year or set at others In places like Calgary (about the US border) it rises in the North East (NE) at the Summer Solstice and in the South East (SE) at the Winter Solstice

Right now as I write this ... 9:30 PM CDT on July 22, 2009 ... a total solar eclipse is in progress on the other side of the world. This is possible only at the time of New Moon, so I'm as sure as I can be that there will be no full moon rising today, or for the next two weeks. The next full moon will occur on August 6, 2009. You need to ask the date, but you don't need to ask what time. The full moon always rises at sunset, wherever you are.
That will depend where you are in Canada:
In Halifax it will rise at 8:13 pm (Atlantic Time)
In Toronto it will rise at 8:20 pm (Eastern Time)
In Winnipeg it will rise at 8:07 pm (Central Time)
In Edmonton it will rise at 7:52 pm (Mountain Time)
In Vancouver it will rise at 7:57 pm (Pacific Time)

Around sundown. "Today" is not a real useful phrase for a question that we might not see for months. When sunset is depends not only on the date, but on exactly where you are... your best bet is to call a local TV or radio station; they usually broadcast this information in the morning and can look it up for you.
The sun emerges from a point on the horizon that lies between the directions of
northeast to southeast from the observer. For standing observers, its direction
of motion is perceived as upward.
