I thought hardiness zones were tied to the USDA, but that's hella cold for freedom units heading into May. Metric precipitation doesn't help, lol.
Hahah it’s Celsius, Canada loves blending everything, so not surprised they didn’t make their own or just ripped the usda, but I think the usda covers Canada in the maps I was looking at.
As a brit, I was pleasantly surprised to see that Canada uses kilometres instead of miles (we use miles / yards here and it's daft).
Then I reached the company gym and saw everything was in lbs :(
I fucking hate how we measure long distances in miles, but short ones in metres, but human heights in feet, and buy cooking ingredients in grams but measure them in ounces, and human weights are in fucking stone, and liquids are in litres unless its milk or beer which are in pints, and...
hahaha yep
never a dull moment
