Politics and Politicians

In this section we aim to gather as much information about political parties and individual politicians stances on metrication.

Here's a list of things to do to help us find out who's pro-metric and who's anti-metric (and who doesn't care):

  • Get them to fill in the questionnaire if possible. If they don't fill it in here, get the answers and fill it in for them.
  • Get them to make a statement about metrication (call them or mail them). Log it on their page here.
  • Log any bill they sponsor that has an effect on metrication.
