Au contrare... SD was worn by 'Other Ranks' in Canada as walking out dress. This photo of L/Cpl Munro catching a bus out of Borden dates to early 1943. Note, both W/M collar badges and cap badge.

I have among Lt. Bill Heil's insignia, his SD collar badges in both OSD and W/M (he was a Sgt. with the GGHG prior to his commission in 1943).
