Canadian use of these tanks?
Hello all. I have the reproduction of this Latvian Vickers Model 1937 here in Canada, but I have been asked if the 1936 were ever sent to Canada as part of the build up of the armored corp. I can't find much about where they were sent. I have read that the KNL tanks that were held back after the fall of the Dutch East Indies were used by the British. I also remember reading that some already on ship, on route were possibly diverted to Australia, but were any sent to Canada? I have seen that the Mk6 were sent here but can't verify any other models of tank.
