Canadian Chevrolet Maple Leaf 4x4 artillery tractors?

Nuyt, I was going to say that this was not a Maple Leaf...Maple Leaf was the heavier end of the Chevrolet range and mimicked GMC. I cannot see, but there may be, the 'MAPLE @ LEAF' badging on the side with the '@' being the Maple Leaf symbol, where 'GENERAL MOTORS TRUCK' badging would normally be. I said that I was originally going to say, but the front end seems to be identical to the Pontiac-designed 1939 GMC that was intended for the Malay States, trialled in Ontario in summer '39. Because Maple Leaf was essentially a rebadged GMC heavy truck, 2-tons and above, although I think with a different radiator grille, this would appear to be essentially a 1940 GMC 4 x 4 produced by Oshawa with imported Timken components, plus the Eaton 2-speed rear axle, similar apart from the Chevrolet engine to the GMCs that were widely exported.
