I am aware but many. are not. Especially some of our neighbours to the south who upon seeing rhe term tonnes think it is a spelling error.
Here in Canada a lot of customers still work in Lbs and seldom refer to tons. Even those that work in KG don’t speak of tonnes. They speak of Kilos.
Hence my post.
