Does anybody have a good handle on when ATC wants you to read back
altimeter settings? On a single IFR flight on Tuesday, I encountered
several controllers who I'd check in with, and they'd give me an altimeter
setting, and that would be it, and 2 (both in Canada, BTW) whom when I
didn't read back the altimeter setting gave it to me again.

I automatically read back the altimeter setting when ever given,
whether IFR or VFR. Any time I've forgotten to include it in the read
back they have given it to me again.
