Does anyone know of which model companies makes tanks or vehicles with Canadian decals or where I can buy Canadian decals for the tanks? I would love to make a dio with some. I know tamiya makes a universal carrier with Can markings included but that is all I know of.
Any help would be great.

Both of DML/Dragon's Sherman Firefly kits include Canadian markings on decals. Lots of other kits also include Canadian markings. Are you looking for a certain unit?
Archer Transfers carries several sheets of Canadian markings in dry transfers (I think these look much better than decals and are very easy to apply). Archer's website is: http://www.archertransfers.com/index.html

Ultracast also makes the normal kind of decals for most Canadian tank regiments in the war. I found mine at a hobby shop in Calgary, but you can also order them at The Barrel Store.

Thanks for all the Help!
I now have access to all the decals I need. I really wanted the markings for a Hastings and Prince Edward regiment carrier and for a sherman tank that supported them in Italy in the 1st Division.
Cheers
