Okay because I'm bored at work I will.
Disclaimer, what I'm about to say is publically available, can be found out by meeting a CANSOF person at a thing, blah blah blah.

Differentish purposes? Absolutely. Roles can easily be determined by seeing what they've publicly been doing.
CSOR "commandos" being more hard ass? Just, no. I don't really know what to say to that. Generally regarded as the tip of the spear? Ditto. How is JTF-2 any less than the tip of the spear? You mean DA? Does foreign military assistance make CSOR less tip-y spear-y? CANSOF guys and gals get to wear their PPCLI, RCR whatever cap badge and tab, and could stand up for their regiment's song at a mess dinner but I don't know what you're getting at, tan beret, CANSOFCOM. Takes all kinds, trades and environmental commands. Airborne Regiment? Again, what the hell?
One thing that pisses people (and me) off is saying JTF-2 deployed somewhere, or CSOR deploed somewhere. They don't. They don't deploy alone. They are deployed in SOTFs with all manners of CANSOF folks, tailored and scaled to the mission. IRTFs, CBRNTFs, or TF Arrowheads, acting as a strategic effect, at home and abroad.
