Default 14th Bn CEF/R Mtl Regt cap badges

Can any one point out the differences, if any, between the 14th Bn cap badge and that of its NPAM successor, The Royal Montreal Regiment. I have been told by one person that the difference is in the makers: Gaunt produced the 14th Bn badge while Scully made the R Mtl Regt ones, at least up to and perhaps including the Second World War. Someone else informed me that he 14th Bn badge was brass/gilding metal while the R Mtl Regt one was bimetal. Perhaps I'm getting forgetful in my old age, but I do not recall ever seeing one in bimetal, in spite of Mazéas's assertion that this was the case.
