It is much easier to answer the question "Which country uses the metric system the least?" That would be the USA. The more trade a country has with the USA the more non-metric intrusions into their systems.
All other countries have the metric system as their primary method of tracking mass, volume and length and their derived measurements.
However almost all countries that are metric have holdover units that the older generation is more comfortable with or which are in folk sayings. Canada has hectares for farmland - but folks still refer to acres, sections and arpents. The British still sell pints of beer, not the 50 cl. glasses used in France, Chinese peasants probably still understand a tael. All English speakers would recognize "A miss is as good as a mile." or "The cowboy wore a ten gallon hat"
