Thanks to Mark and Tara for letting me joing them for part of the June 3, 2002 edition of CBC’s Edmonton AM [@EdmAMCBC] with Mark Connolly [@MarkConnollyCBC], Tara McCarthy [@CBCRadioTara] to discuss ‘Exploring Canada’s dual identity when it comes to measurements‘. Here is the show’s description:
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is reportedly planning to announce the revival of the imperial system for the Queen’s Jubilee. Here in Canada, even though we switched to the metric system in the 1970s, we never fully committed to it. That’s something that’s been bugging Egan Chernoff, a professor of math education at the University of Saskatchewan.
