Thank you both! This confirms my suspicion that it is a BD blouse from a Belgian SAS volunteer. New recruits since the liberation of Belgium wore the blue parachute wing. It has Belgian rank insignia dating it to 1946. But with ww2 insignia so maybe already enlisted in 1944.
Battledress is canadian and dated April 1944
Included a picture of the BD (Belgian rank is sergeant)
Another picture from the book From SAS to special forces group 75 jaar Belgische special forces. BD of corporal Verschueren. It has the same insignia configuration.
