James, my pleasure. I do hope you have a complete set of W&T Magazine?

Next question, does anyone know of the history of these Lynx's before they came over to Canada or before they went to Greece?

As far as I can tell, Greece received a lot of (military) aid in the post-war period, first from Great Britain and then the USA, to keep them from becoming a communist state. Later they joined NATO, which ensured further supplies.
So a likely scenario is that your Lynx was supplied by the Canadian Government to the Greece government:
1) either straight from stocks held in Europe, much of which was delapidated and worn out;
2) from 1), but then first sent back to Canada to be refurbished and then shipped out;
3) from stocks which were used for training and/or unissued stock in Canada, only to be shipped abroad as military aid after WW2.
Anyway, this does not help much I'm afraid...
