I'm at work now, so can't D/L...what/how did you modify?

Most importantly you'd have to modify the nationality in the display name. Here's what the Canadian CLFiji.cfg looks like if you open it with notepad;
[UnitClass]
ClassName=CLFiji
UnitType=6
AppearanceDate=19441021
DisappearanceDate=19460101
DisplayName=CA CL Fiji
[Unit 1]
Name=HMCS Uganda
DOC=19441021
DOD=19460101
Since there is only one Canadian ship of the Fiji class, it wasnt too much of a headache.
Notice that as well as changing the Dissapearance/Appearance dates for both the UnitClass and Unit 1 , I had to use 'CA' instead of 'BR' for the DisplayName. This of course confirms it's nationality as Canadian and not British.
If you compare the units on the British and Canadian ship cfg's in their Rosters, you'll be able to work out what you have to change. All you really need to know beforehand are the new ships name and their dates of service start and end.
I also made sure to name her 'HMCS Uganda' so that it differed from the Royal Navy ship 'Uganda' already listed as 'Unit 9' in the Data/Roster/British/Sea CLFiji.cfg...which incidentaly has the wrong DOD date listed for that unit. You might want to change it from
'19460101' to the more accurate '19441021' to avoid the possibility of both ships existing at the same time as two different units.
Hope that's all clear enough. Hasn't crashed my system yet, but i'm not 100% sure she'll spawn as a Canadian ship until I see her through my periscope some date after October '44....If I'm not fish food by then.
