[USMA:24312] Re: Millimetres, centimetres, and decimetres

[Mike Joy]

Joe said:- Quite true.  But in Canada 4 X 8 foot plywood is still readily available.  Asphalt shingles and bricks have been metricated in such a way that builders have not noticed. ***************   Canada's greatest problem is that it's joined to the US. Had it been located some distance away it would have had the same success in metricating completely as Australia has done.   Canada will just have to wait until the US gets metricated before it can complete it's conversion.   Regards   Mike
