    That’s a really great perspective I never had. I only see it as a kid growing up in the 70s usa. But you folks got through it and we didn’t. That’s telling on our stubbornness at the very least. Btw I never had more trouble with alcohol than the time I visited … asked for a pint. Do you mean a Mickey? Chuckles.

      I can switch between metric and imperial with ease. Like many Canadians, I still do oven temperatures in F, height in feet and inches, and body weight in pounds. But I have a number of coworkers who use metric only, mostly immigrants and young people, and I will tailor my units for the people I’m talking to.
