Can anyone confirm if this is a gas mask from world war II? I am assuming it is British but I don't know if it is a British or Canadian. If it is a civilian gas mask or what year this is. Any help would greatly be appreciated

And warning about asbestos used in filters..

Apparently the no4 mk 3 refers to the harness style on back. Here's some history..
