I am sorry if I seem stupid, but what is a metric year? I'm very curious and don't have wiki at work. I'm firewalled.

in canada they use the metric system. they measure everything differently like tempature distance and time
if you wanted to live or visit canada you would need to get a metric watch or have one that will do both english and metric
I believe a metric year is around 423 days instead of the 365 we are used to here in the states

Yes 🙂 According to Wikipedia Metric time uses seconds as the base component.
But now I'm wondering how Canada scales minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years.
Canada is a cool place 😎.

Numerous proposals have been made for alternative base units of metric time. On March 28, 1794, the president of the commission which developed the metric system, Joseph Louis Lagrange, proposed in a report to the commission the names déci-jour and centi-jour (deciday and centiday in English).[1] Base units equivalent to decimal divisions of the day, such as 1/10, 1/100, 1/1000, or 1/100,000 day, or other divisions of the day, such as 1/20 or 1/40 day, have also been proposed, with names such as tick, meck, chi, chron, moment, etc., and multiple and submultiple units formed with metric prefixes. Such alternative units have not gained any notable acceptance, however, mostly from sheer lack of acquaintance and familiarity.
