You would think, but no. It was Fahrenheit. They rarely (if ever) went to 500 F though.

Look at the newspaper article: https://lemmy.zip/post/68972958/28002374 edmonton was canada, and they didnt start using metric for temp until the 70’s I think.

Also the wikipedia article says this as well. Its F!
