      That graph is wrong though. It should say distance -> is it a long distance? -> yes -> hours (at least if you’re driving)

    Officially, Canada is an SI unit country. Canadians have a habit of using lbs and inches in everyday life, which is sad. I have been using only SI units for quite a few years now, but it definitely takes work.

    To answer the spirit of your question: yes, I have re-affirmed my commitment to using metric. I have been angry about imperial units for a long time, I’m just more angry now.

    I assume you mean just in everyday use, because Canada has been officially metric since 1971. We might discuss weight or height in imperial measurements, but if someone says they’re 175cm I think most people will understand and not ask for a conversion.
