Other than the showy cast-in Canadian logo they had no manufacturer's identification on them. A quick google search led me to the Vintage Machinery site and the subject of the Canadian Blower & Forge company of Kitchener Ont.
According to the site, the Canadian subsidiary of the Buffalo Forge Co. of Buffalo, New York was founded in 1903 in Montreal but moved to Kitchener in 1914 where they acquired the assets of Canadian Buffalo Forge, changed their name to Canadian Blower and Forge and started producing drill presses. The Canadian drill presses apparently are identical to the ones made by the American company and manuals are still available.
