Canada, UK, US and US territories use miles instead of kilometers [1]. So in a boolean sense you are right, but it doesn't really change the overall situation.

  Canada has some imperial remnants (e.g. people commonly measure their colloquial "weight" in lb), but miles isn't one of those remnants. It's kind of annoying for cars – when the CAD is doing well, there are often significant savings available by purchasing a car in the US and importing it, but the savings have never been enough for me to deal with the unpleasantness of having my car's instruments read in miles.

    Every car I've seen in America made in the last 20 years has dual scales on the speedometer. I guess the odometer is often and only in miles, but some cars have an option to switch units..

    You’d be surprised. I rented a car in the US recently and the digital gauges changed to kilometers when I connected my phone to bluetooth (my phone is in European) All analog dials I’ve ever seen are dual mph/kph

      Yes, digital often have the option of switching, but that filters the number of vehicles. My car has several digital measurements (fuel efficiency, range until empty, odometer) with no option to change units. > All analog dials I’ve ever seen are dual mph/kph Yes, but one is usually much more prominent. Again using my car as an example, the km/h markings are white on black, with clear marking every 10/20 km on the gauge. The mph font is about half the size, dark red on black, and doesn't match up with the gauge markings.

  Canada uses km. https://www.authentikcanada.com/holidays/highway-code-canada https://www.authentikcanada.com/holidays/highway-code-canada

  Canada does not use mph, at least not Ontario which is the only part I've driven in.

    Canada doesn't, but many Canadians do.
