Canadian Colonel?

[woolybully]

Hello experts!

I'm after a little help with this epaulette / shoulder board. If taken at face value it would appear to be Canadian Colonel full dress shoulder board, however lots of googling had not been able to confirm this. It would appear that modern Canadian Colonels have the insignia of 4 stripes.

So, is this real? and if so, could you identify the era? are we talking WWI? I took possession of it along with other items, most of which are roughly 1900-1930.

Any pointers, ideas, comments would be most appreciated.

Thanks
