"Canada is mostly metric"
Canada has a bunch of metric stickers on imperial things, it is not actually metric. Sure, their may be metric in the building code or a schematic, but next to them will be a warning saying that these are approximations and not to try to actually build anything with them or you will be a little off. You cannot actually build a doorway that is 203cm tall because while a door might approximately fit in that gap it wont practically fit in that gap.

Nothing is really metric because it is a worthless system that is simply not usable overall. Celsius seems fine tho.

Correction, the US uses US customary units which is different from UK imperial units which is what used to Canada use
