This should probably be moved to the non Philco radios section. In any event I don't think it's a Crosley or a Canadian brand of set, almost all Canadian made sets have a brass tag riveted to the chassis or at least the back giving the make, model and seriel number as well as the power specs.
Since there is no brand name on the dial it was either made by an independent or it is one of those kit radios that they used to sell in the 1940s and 50s. One of the Phillip Collins books has pictures of some Bakelite sets like that, he just marked them as unknown, sometimes they will have something like a Lockheed Constelation or a Douglass DC 3 in the dial.
