The 11 is for 2, being Mk2 liner, it looks like a 7 under the cruciform pad, this is for size.

I must apologize, I tracked down the information and I misread, P is for police for Canadian DP&H helmets, M is for messenger. Doctors and medical staff used MO. Canadian markings were very simple compared to the UK. P police, F fire, W warden, U utilities, ARP (Air Raid Precautions) and CPC (Corps de Protection Civile in Quebec). After the war Canada changed to multiple colour and initials.

The information comes from a website and Mark was kind enough to link it in my rescue helmet post. Very good selection of information.
