To Canadians, British, Irish, Australians, New Zealanders, Jamaicans, anyone else from an english-speaking country with ties to the crown: What units do you THINK in, imperial or metric? What about older people that you know? Even if you have an intuitive sense for both units, you must be more comfortable with one or the other.

I was under the impression that none of these groups used imperial at all anymore (except colloquially/informally), but my brother (we're US native) recently visited a far-off relation in rural England and told me he was surprised to see some road signs in miles. Our relative told us that many people still consider imperial units to be their first nature, although young people in urban areas don't. I'm wondering what others think. Is it similar in commonwealth/other english speaking nations?

England is basically metric in name only and anyone who tells you otherwise is lying.
