Default 2 CACRU...where was it?

My grandfather was posted as a reinforcement for the 1 Canadian Army Tank Brigade during WWII. He was taken on strength at #2 CACRU ( Canadian Armoured Corps Reinforcement Unit) on Feb 5, 1943.

Does anyone have any information on where #2 CACRU was located? I've checked the book:" The Royal Canadian Armoured Corps: an illustrated history" and it references 1, 2 and 3 CACRU's, but does not specify where they all were located. I have also searched on this site for references to the location of 2 CACRU but I'm coming up empty.

Please e-mail me at blazingcannon(at)sympatico(dot)ca if you have any information.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Glen Cannon.

Hi Mark,

I'm trying to find the same information as Glen.
If you read this, could you possibly contact me by PM?
Many thanks!
