Yes.  I usually manage to import a tzdata release within a couple of 
days after it's available and I MFC it a couple of days later.  The 
security-officer team also sends out an erratum for it.

I imported tzdata 2026a this morning.  That was released before the 
announcement about British Columbia.  I'll import 2026b when it comes 
out.
