Default Postwar CMP

I know I take now the risc of being kicked out of that forum. But I would like to ask one question to te "Canadians":

After producing about 750'000 miltary vehicles during WW2 it is obvious that many companies in Canada became involved in the "vehicle business" (not to forget all those local suppliers of parts) and thousands of people had to be recruited to join the manufacturing of these trucks.

What has happened after WW2 then? Naturally the demand of CMPS went down dramatically (already after 1943, when the British did not loose so many of them any more to the "Afrikakorps" )

But still; the trained people were available, the assembly plants existing etc.

Did the "canadian truc production" just shrink to zero? Or has the field left over to the US-companies?

Where is the CMP of the 2nd. Generation?
