Generally, we use imperial, not US customary units, though there are exceptions. Weights and Measures act has a pint at 568ml, but I swear I've also seen both us pints and 5dL depending on country of origin.

It's a mess of mixed units all over the place, some by proxy, other by legacy.

A place to ask Canadians questions and get answers. The most obvious questions would be about Canada, but you can ask about pretty much anything; news, current events, society, etc

I don't intend this as an AMA format, but can entertain some. Rules:

Be civil and act in good faith.
No trolling.
