"SSF" is the Special Service Force, the grandfather of Canadian special-capability units. Google it.

As for the badge, there are so many unofficial unit badges and patches floating around out there these days ... I traded for many dozens in the sandbox ... who knows if this is official ("real") or not.
The flint spearhead was a symbol of the FSSF, and has been used as recently as Afghanistan (unofficially) by the PPCLI. CSOR has kicked around a number of flint spearhead designs, and there's also Task Force Arrowhead now, whose official badge I've never actually seen.
Unless somebody comes across something brilliant, I'd lean toward this being an unofficial unit patch - especially given that SOF units don't really tend to wear official badges much in the field ....
