No they did not, as Lloyd Carriers did not exist

Seriously, these pictures are not proof of Ford Canada manufacturing Loyd Carriers. For that we need production records and/or pictures of a production line in operation. What these pictures proof to me is Ford Canada at least had a couple taken apart by the production engineering department to assess if they could be taken in production in Canada. I would not be surprised they found out the design of the Loyd Carrier wasn't really suited to mass production. Ford USA came to the same conclusion when assessing the Universal Carrier, which is why they re-engineered it into the T16.
