Saw this recently on a WAN Show (19:12). How true is this? It sounds wild.

Air temperature is strictly in celcius in Québec. I have no idea what it means to set the thermostat to 70F. Is it hot, is it cold, who knows 🀷

Same in the maritimes.

So here (and maybe it's just my family?) I've always seen the home thermostat set in F, while the weather outside is strictly C. So like my house is set at 70f but if I were talking about outside I'd use C. Which is funny because the thermostat in F also means nothing to me, I just notch it up or down a few degrees depending on how cold I am in the winter πŸ˜‚πŸ˜
