I never had cause to notice them before, but I'll be looking now, especially at my favorite military scrapyard, where the pots may no doubt lurk.

There is an old Cdn NSN for them, 7310-21-108-5755, which includes some Cdn army numbers for the model as well. They are now obsolete, although it's hard to say when. The last update was 2013 on the number. A lot of the numbers refer to the Army cadets, so they may have been using them later than the actual Cdn Forces.

I see they are readily available on ebay, although if one gets picky about the date and trying to find a C/l\ example, it could take a little longer.
