UTC is a more reasonable default than Canada/Pacific
I think an even more reasonable default would be to do nothing at all. I.e., leave it unset. The same goes for keymap ("us" is the standard anyway).
In principle using the standard rc.conf file should just work (though you would then get an unset hostname and "C" as your locale, so maybe we want to tweak it a bit).
I thought Canada/Pacific timezone was some kind of salute to the founder of Arch.
While this might sound nice, it's imho not worth the downside. UTC is just a better default and most people probably know the offset from their local time.
