In school we were told that the liter was a "liter" bit more than a quart. I remember Canadian gasoline being sold in imperial gallons, which were five quarts. (Detroit is actually north of Windsor). That was back the last time the Canadian dollar (It had the Queen on it then) was at or near the same value as the greenback.
