I had not heard of any Defiants in Canada. I know there were a couple of Night Fighter squadrons based in the UK made up from Canadian crews. I think these were 409 and 410 Sqn.
I'd be interested to know more about this.
P.S.
The replica Defiant built by the Boulton Paul Association is now externally complete and was unveiled on 15th September.
I look after their website which includes pictures of the Defiant and other Heritage Projects.
I recently moved the BPA website to link below.
