MiniArt Ltd have just announced that they are working on their latest version of the Valentine in 1/35th Scale. This time, on a Canadian theme.

I have to say I was not expecting this. I also have to say that I wasn't even really interested in Valentines until MiniArt started producing them in 1/35. Their Valentine line has been top notch and a great value to boot, and adding a Canadian variant is just icing on the cake from where I stand. It would be worth getting more than one of these just to get the extra crew figures.

I may be wrong but I think Canadian produced Valentines were sent exclusively to Russia.

Edit* Oops, according to wiki Canada kept 30 of the 1420 they produced for training purposes.
