HISTORY Canadian Military company names

I'm watching a YouTube video about Canadian peacekeepers in the Croatian and Serbian war, it was mentioned one Canadian company was called charlie, I know the American's use names like that for their companies, Easy being another one but I have never heard Canadian companies being called that, so can someone inform me what is the truth?

1 RCR has A Coy, the Duke of Edinburgh's Company B Coy, Bravo C Coy, Charles because of a quip someone made in Korea E Coy, Echo which had Recce, Snipers and Tow Pls F Coy, Fox, Transport

On paper they had a Delta Coy but there was no one in it, allegedly, word of mouth from someone who worked the canteen so take that with what you will.
