Canada is like the UK, where it's a hybrid of metric and imperial. Even the Canadian Government sometimes annoyingly uses imperial. I remember reading a government article a couple of years ago about drinking at least 6 8oz. glasses of water a day. Being born after Canada switched to metric, I asked how much 8oz. is as I don't have a clue and I asked them why they're using imperial measurements. I received a typical non-answer from the government saying to use google to convert to metric as they apparently couldn't be bothered.
I wish we were 100% metric as metric measurements are so much easier to understand and generally use whole numbers e.g. 2mm or 7/16 of an inch...which is easier? If we weren't so close to the US, we'd be mostly metric like most of the rest of the world.
Heck, even the US uses some metric, but Americans don't know how to spell...e.g. a 2 Liter bottle of Coke as a case in point.
