Ken he went there first and got nothing. and there is not one in the photo index on vintage ether.

Funny that its a buffalo press from the the USA found in Montreal and not made by Canadian blower and forge the Buffalo subsidiary.

one wonders if it was a model sent there to be made when they were in Montreal briefly manufacturing before setting up in southern Ontario.

at first glance, I thought that it was a post drill, were the motor added later ?

It looks like a V belt pulley was added to the flat belt pulley. My guess is it was originally driven from a line shaft.
