[CentOS] ISO-8601 and LOCALEs

We would like to set the standard date and time display on our CentOS hosts to
the format "yyyy-mm-dd HH:mm:ss", where HH is the twenty-four hour clock. 
Does there exist a simple setting in Linux/CentOS that permits such a change
for a specific LOCALE (in our case en_CA.UTF-8) or is it necessary to build a
custom LOCALE LC_TIME file?

If the latter case holds then can someone point me to a web site or other
reference that provides somewhat more details on the process than that
provided in the man pages?

Sincerely,
Jim
