Carman,

I'm sure a forum member in Canada is happy to print it and mail it to you....if not let me know your postal address.

It is a 16 page document listing all the regiment members who died in wars from 1885 onwards. Quite a lot of Smith's are listed, but under the WORLD WAR II KILLED IN ACTION section I found:

*RFN SMITH, E. 8/6/44
* Murdered in the field as prisoners of war.

This must be your uncle, right?

Noteworthy is that there was another Smith - RFN SMITH, F - murdered on the same day. Were they related?
