My first idea:

        type "date" at both the "sensor_sktn#" and "idsroot#" prompts.

If "sensor_sktn" reports the current time in Mountain Standard Time and
"idsroot" reports a time that's 6 hours later than Mountain Standard
Time (Saskatchewan is currently 6 hours before UTC...), the problem may
just be that "idsroot" doesn't have its time zone set to
"America/Regina", so that it reads the time stamps from the capture file
- which are UNIX timestamps, meaning they're in UTC (modulo leap seconds
and so on) - and reports them in the machine's native time zone, i.e. 
UTC, whilst "sensor_sktn" has its time zone set to "America/Regina" and
reads the UTC timestamps and reports them in MST.
