Tony: Just looked at your plow photos, it's definitely a Canton built Little Genius. If you get into the nuts and bolts of the Hamilton and Canton built plows, most parts are identical. I do know that Hamilton built plows with GP bottoms like yours, the bottoms were forged at Canton. Bear in mind that most Canadian plows were built with Hamilton forged ACE bottoms. Very likely some parts were all forged either in Hamilton or Canton, thus your Canton built Little Genius could have some Hamilton components. Your contention on the red, white and blue colors, doesn't hold water. When that plow was built Canada did not have a flag. We were still flying the British Union Jack, and it is indeed red, white and blue. Contrary to your thinking, when Canada adopted that red and white flag around 1960, many Canadians, including myself were quite upset that blue was not included in that new flag. Veterans who fought under the red, white and blue were most upset, and they almost had their way.
