Probably because Western Canada had some of the worst resistence to going metric. This is all from what I've observed so anyone who is Canadian feel free to chime in with corrections if necessary :). (ding, dong) <--- the chimes, you know! My son lives in western Canada and on all my visits to him as well as correspondence with him, both he and Alberta are very much metric and with no apologies or regrets. If anything, the influence of the US is rejected and disdained, even though non-metric is occasionally and begrudgingly used as a result of that influence.
