Are you sure the light Shade & Yoke weren't made by REVERE in the states? Bonnet is Canadian.

Pump top/bonnet is for a Canadian Clearvision visible pump.
Light is a generic light used anywhere an outdoor light was needed, including at gas stations as a pump island light. Mounted on a 2 1/2" pipe (industry standard).

These are very large pieces. I should of put something in the picture for reference. On the yoke it reads Benjamin made in Canada. What would you say the bonnet is off?

So on the Canadian Clearvision visible pump top / bonnet it is not specific to any brand of pump? In this recovery I also got about a dozen other porcelain light shades from Benjamin, red & green. It would be interesting to me to know what specific pump the bonnet could have come off.

Here's a picture of a Clearvision 550. That's your bonnet on top of it. Clearvision/Service Station Equipment is the manufacturer of your pump. Pump would have been branded by the company that purchased it. i.e. red Indian, Texaco ect. Unsure of what you mean by brand.

Clearvisions are the most common Canadian visible. You should have no problem finding one...if you're really lucky you'll find a double. That bonnet also fits a double visible as shown below.

Very cool pump.....I am on the search for a visible. Did find a fully done early Gilbarco done in Shell that I am thinking about.
