The Canadian Ford-work in Windsor, Ontario started with the production of passenger cars in 1904. Production of commercial vehicles started with the Ford-T. For the main part, these vehicles were made for the Canadian market. They had minor detail changes compared to the American models. For example, the lorries had a higher payload. During World War II, hundreds of thousands lorries and military vehicles were made for the armies of the Commonwealth and also for the Soviet Union. The military vehicles were based on the Canadian Military Pattern – in short CMP. Chevrolet of Canada made those CMP vehicles, too. Most of the components were identical. Only engines, transmissions and rear axles were company own components.
