London Fog Main coat Pea Coat with 'Canada' brass buttons....dating? Official?

[laurenm]

Hi There Everyone,
This coat is a bit puzzling to me. It is London Fog and looks to me like it's from the 1980s, but I'm not sure. It has brass buttons with "Canada" and anchors which seems official but it definitely doesn't look like military 'issue'.... Any thoughts?
Thanks for any direction,
Lauren

I vote '80s too, Laurenm.

I wonder if it might have been used as part of a postal worker's uniform at some point in time.

Those buttons are from the Royal Canadian Navy. Maybe the buttons were replaced?
