Canada did not use the Brit SMG and manufactured its own version. Towards the end of the service life of the Canadian made C1 SMG and with the fine C7/C8 about to come into service the supply system started procuring/issuing the Brit magazines with rollers. The sling you have is anyones guess how it came to Canada. The Canadian issue C1 SMG sling was more of an olive colour and not that lurid (Brit) green, the Canadian brass clip was totally different and blackened also.
