Never knew Canadian football uses larger footballs. Do they use different size basketballs? I think I had heard of the 110 yard field. Think its 110 yards. Or do they use meters up there?

No. They use metres, like the rest of the world.

Liberia and Burma use something besides the metric system. And most of Great Britain uses its system instead of the metric.

No we use meters as well. Mostly for electrical and nat gas consumption
and billing.

Was up in Canada a couple years back and bought a 12 oz latte. At least

I don't drink coffee or any variations of it, but alcohol which I'd
consider much more sacred than coffee has all been converted to metric
amounts. ~ at least the wine, beer and hard spirits that I buy has
been converted.
