Not necessarily, the timezone could just be set wrong on one of them. I
only learned this recently myself, but Newfoundland is actually an hour
and a half off from Eastern Time, at GMT -0330.
There's actually a handful of oddball timezones around the world.
Mumbai is also off by a half hour for example, and Kathmandu is at
+0545.
