was that carrier not the one restored by Don Barrie (Thunder Bay) then donated to the group ? i know he has done a few and donated them to causes around Canada. i have a picture of this carrier in convoy (from him) so i presume it is the one he did.

The carrier was one of the ones at the Elliot Brothers yard in Newtonville, near Port Hope, Ontario. It was the Elliots themselves that got it running for the Regiment. I once did a parade with the Hasty Pee's through Picton, Ontario with my carrier alongside Katie.
