It's all arbitrary. Are you advocating that the CFL change from a 10 yards
to make a first down to 9.144 meters to make a first down, Trudeau?

If metric is so wonderful, why did Canuckians have it forced down their

billions of dollars since 90% of Canuckian trade is with a country that does
not use metric.
