Bedford QLR use by Canadians
 
So has anyone come across any pictures or information on the use of Bedford QLR trucks by any Canadian units during the war?

I searched here and found nothing on it and didn't find much by googling about their use by Canadians except maybe it happened.

Eric,

I presume you have found this (?):
http://www.rcsigs.ca/index.php/Bedford_QL

And there is the picture attached from the archives of Utrecht that shows a QLR during the Canadian Parade on June 6th 1945 in Utrecht, Netherlands, but no markings visible to determine if this is a actual Canadian vehicle or rather British.

Yes I did Alex, but as you mention about the archives photo, not a single picture on that page or in the supporting links shows anything Canadian marked. I was hoping someone here might have something more concrete than what that site mentions. Which is probably used but nothing concrete on what ones. And if used what units were they suppled to?
