Agreed. Nothing but a training tank assigned in Canada only.
A former CF fellow using nom de plume ‘Silverhawk’, Harold Skaarup, has written extensively on the history of these medium tanks.

The commonly used nomenclature and technical nomenclature is ‘passionately’ discussed on other social ( ? ha !) media sites.
