Canada became the British Commonwealth's main supplier of light and medium motor vehicles, producing more than 800,000 during the war. The mainstay of production was the Canadian Military Pattern truck (CMP). Manufactured by Ford and General Motors Canada, this standardized design allowed for a faster rate of production and easy maintenance in the field. Used by all Commonwealth armies, the CMP was one of Canada's greatest wartime industrial achievements.
