Unfortunately you wish, Duncan.  I'll cite Readers' digest as an example.  They use to 
publish metric units in prominence for recipes, but recently changed that (July 01) in 
a move I suspect has as a future motive to eliminate completely the SI units from that 
section.  They also used to put metric units for people's personal data, too.  Well... 
 They're nowhere to be seen.

Therefore, I'd like to use this vehicle to strongly urge ALL our Canadian fellows here 
to complain vehemently about this with them (I've already done so, but I didn't even 
get the dignity of an answer...).

Then there is McLean, Cosmopolitan, Alberta report, etc...
