I had been in the Canadian work force, for a period of four years.The USA was, and still is Canada's biggest trading partner. From time to times these two nations (USA & CANADA)lock horns and disagree on various trade philosophies and principles. When a nation "CANADA," has only 1/10 the population of our neighbour "USA" trade slow downs, and or stoppages, or trade problems sent to the world court, can cause a lot of discomfort for both nations. I remember all to well, the Government of CANADA did try to educate Canadians,at least in some demographic locations that Canada must look outside NORTH AMERICA for trading partners. Those nations whom were interested in Canadian goods, did indicate Canadian goods would have to have a METRIC identification on such goods. As I was employed in the Transportation of Natural Gas to our neighbour "USA", the entire Natural Gas Pipeline infrastructure, Compressor Stations and Prime Movers maintained the Imperial system of weights and measures. Was it a good thing that Canada adopted the METRIC SYSTEM? Was it a MISTAKE that CANADA adopted the METRIC SYSTEM? A Democratic Nations Government should have to do what the elected citizens ask of their Government. As a Canadian, I would ask myself, "has the implementation of Metric been good for Canada in the realm of trade"? The entire Planet is in one hel_ of mess with trade issues. I believe time shall prove that going Metric was a good thing for Canada. 7 billion + citizens on this plant. If Utilizing Metric can gain footholds into more trade ,then so be it.

Today's Featured Article - A Farmall Story - by Ed Meadors. The year was 1978. Our young family had recently moved to rural Chesapeake, Virginia to a plot of land which would finally allow us to realize our dreams of a huge garden, critters and more lawn and pasture than we would ever use! We needed a TRACTOR; not a riding mower or tractor wannabe, but a real TRACTOR. The answer to our needs materialized in the form of a '44 Farmall A, complete with cultivators, discs, single plow, a 5ft.Woods belly mower and one, mounted spare 9.00x24 rear wheel.
