Updated information. It was the Calgary Regiment , and not the Ontario Regiment which were issued with Firefly tanks in Italy. The Ontario Regiment only received the 17 pdr Shermans after their move to NWE in March 1945. Note that all Canadian Armoured Regiments in Italy did receive six 105mm Sherman IBs in the fall of 1944.
