Canadian tank names

Response to Re: Canadian tank types

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The names and numbers listed below come from a number of sources, books, web sites, model forums and kind souls who have forwarded information to me. All I have done is to compile the various bits and pieces.
I have only added the Recce Troop, Ammunition and Recovery Tanks names for LdSH rather than duplicate the great information John has done in a former post.
If anyone can add any additional WD serials or match those listed to the names it would be much appreciated.
I hope this is of some use to some one.
