The Canadian Viet Nam Veterans memorial in Windsor Ontario has 105 names in it, BUT many more Canadians were killed in American uniforms in that time period. The US accepted volunteers from Canada gladly, BUT they had to put a US " Hometown " on their applications so the numbers could be hidden. Many of those Canadians were buried as " Americans " in US Military cemmetaries.

So yes a number of Candians were KIA in Viet Nam, but their exact numbers are hard to estimate. The best guess is about 500 to 1,000. The names on the memorial in Canada are those who have been "proven " to have been born in Canada. There are many more that are buried, both in the ground and in the US military records system.
