"Tonne" is a metric unit of mass equal to 1,000 kilograms. "Ton" is not a metric unit, nor is it a unit of mass, it is a unit of weight and equals 2,000 pounds ... however, a "metric ton" is 2,200 pounds.

In the U.S. and Canada a TON is 2000 pounds. This measure is also known as a SHORT TON. In countries that use the metric system, a TONNE is 1000 kilograms, which makes it 2204.62 pounds. This measure is also known as a METRIC TON. England has its own peculiar system based on a LONG TON. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ton#Units_of_mass
