When I did my first few dives, my rental gear was imperial. As soon as I bought my own gear, it was metric all the way. My observation of other divers around Vancouver is that imperial is more common. Perhaps it is because of our proximity to the USA.
An interesting note - Canada went metric in 1978 (I think). I only learned metric in school so I tend to think in metric. My wife, 9 years older than me, learned mainly imperial in school so she still thinks in imperial. I am trying to convert her
Sounds about right. I finished high school in 1976.
