Default Canadian exports to Australia....

...were virtually nil. During 1940-41 (until the Japanese came into the picture) virtually 100% of Lithgow production was sent to Britain. We were making much more than locally needed. During the panic of 1942 that exporting shrank to about 20% of production. I just wondered if Canada was also able to re-arm the British army in the months following Dunkirk.
