time.sleep() is now implemented with a waitable timer and WaitForMultipleObjects() on Windows. It uses _PyOS_SigintEvent() so it can be interrupted with CTRL+C.

    bpo-21302: time.sleep() uses waitable timer on Windows (GH-28483)
    
    On Windows, time.sleep() now uses a waitable timer which has a
    resolution of 100 ns (10^-7 sec). Previously, it had a solution of 1
    ms (10^-3 sec).
    
    * On Windows, time.sleep() now calls PyErr_CheckSignals() before
      resetting the SIGINT event.
    * Add _PyTime_As100Nanoseconds() function.
    * Complete and update time.sleep() documentation.
