I unusually travel into British Columbia every now and then to get my
filling of metric. Too bad the west is less metric than the east. I do
remember everything was metric that I saw in Toronto.
In short. I saw several things that were non-metric in BC. Acres, pounds
in grocery stores, and occasionally people using non metric measurements
when they find out that I am from the US. I usually respond in metric...
"I will have the 500 ml beer."
I did find a choice Celsius only thermometer at Canadian Tire in BC.

It's (metrication) much more common in eastern Canada than
Western Canada. Probably because Western Canada had some of the
