*UKMA: "Bahamas is not a country"*

Part of my honeymoon was to the Bahamas (700 islands in the Caribbean)
Bahamas is more imperial than UK or the US!!!
The only time I heard metric was ironically from:
A late night education programme from America for kids (presumably for schools to record, considering how late it was)
and
an American talking about a dive he'd done in metres.
No Bahamian, Bahamian media source or Bahamian product (etc etc) quoted metric at all.
All their roads were imperial too (just like ours). In fact the signs looked very familiar!
OK - so let me think.
What did UKMA and USMA quote as the "only 3 countries in the world who have not gone metric"????
Why were they ever allowed to peddle these lies?
