Help!

Baking in Canada is exceedingly frustrating at times. Most of the recipes I find give measurements in ounces, frex 10oz can condensed milk. Which is fine except the products sold here don't give me a measurement in ounces, we have mililiters. Which is annoying to convert but ok. Now is where we get to the part where I need help. Does anyone know if a "16 oz can of maraschino cherries" is in fl. oz, or regular ounces? My can is in mililiters, a volume measurement. It matters weight or volume because the conversion is different, unless it's water, then it's pretty close.

Who decided having the same unit for weight and volume was a good idea? Confusing imperial system...

If the measurements and math are correct, the recipe should make about 5 dozen cookies. My aunt listed them as a favourite so I am attempting to make them for our get together tomorrow.

Here is the recipe if you are interested. I will let you know how they turn out when I'm done :)
