Description:
Found this typewriter in a store locally in Ottawa in good working order. No provenance known.
Contrary to some Arabic models from other companies that have proportional caracter spacing, this one has fixed caracter spacing at 12 cpi, but a few long caracters are extending beyond the width of their slug, in a sort of bulge.
The ribbon selector may be moved to black or white, for a monochrome ribbon. On a related note, it seems to be best to space lines apart at one and a half or double space .

Bonjour! I am from the region of Montreal, Quebec and moved to Ottawa, Ontario in 1992.
Amateur watchmaker and machinist, I love anything mechanical, hydraulic or electric. I have restored American and Canadian clocks and small lathes, milling machines and a jig bore.
Most of my typewriters have French Canadian QWERTY keyboards, with some exception for rare finds.
