WWII Canadian Manufactured US AFV Gun Cases

Hi,

I was wondering what US AFV ammunition was made in Canada in WWII? I own a Canadian made 75mm M18 case and I've seen a picture of a Canadian made 76mm case. Did they also make 37mm, 3 inch and 90mm ammunition? If so, could anyone post some pics?

Thanks,
Mark
 
They did not produce 37mm or 90mm as far as I know. They made 2 pounder AP ammunition for themselves and, under USA contract in 1942 - I think the US was hedging their bets at that time.
In addition to 75mm tank ammo (HE smoke and AP), they produced 57mm AP and APCBC (6pounder) for themselves and under US contract.
