This depends on the company...! Columbia never had recording facilities
in Canada (AFAIK, anyway) so their "Canadian" series were UK sides
issued for Canada sale. Berliner and its later version,VTM(C), DID
record in Montreal; sadly, any ledgers are long since lost...! Compo
(including Decca) also recorded in Montreal; these ledgers DO
still exist (at the NLC)! There were a handful of postwar "indie"
Canadian labels which also recorded in Canada...
