It's the same here in Canada. Officially metric, but Milk is in Liters,
speed in KM, and we say our height in feet and inches. But I think I am
only "first generation metric". :o)
>>Yeah, I'm Canadian and living in the UK so it's especially confusing for
me, but at the same time at least I'm used to living in a country that goes
back and forth between imperial and metric! As long as a pint is a pint of
beer I'm fine with it!
cheers,
Jennifer
