You guys are correct on the brush...a quick google search on fountain brush shows they are still available today for stenciling.
Re the cleaning rods, there has to be a reason those were here in Manitoba. The only things that I can think of would have been the Stuart or Staghound...perhaps moreso the staghound as those were in Manitoba. As to Bofors, Canada used the hinged cleaning rods as opposed to the US pattern of rod, so that would not have been a reason for them to be here. As well, both the sets of rods came in a set of 3 which is pretty long for the antitank gun, but would make more sense on a tank or armoured car.
