Canpex 2018



A cover posted from Canpex 2018 

The cover is posted with three definitives “ from far and wide “ series of 2018 


Hopewell Rocks (N.B.), Permanent™
It has taken millions of years for the wind and tides to carve the massive flowerpot structures that make up the Bay of Fundy’s Hopewell Rocks.


MacMillan Provincial Park (B.C.), Permanent™
An old-growth forest of Douglas fir has been preserved in British Columbia’s MacMillan Provincial Park on Vancouver Island. At Cathedral Grove (-featured on the stamp), visitors can walk on trails beneath the towering trees, some of which are more than 800 years old.



Prince Edward Island National Park (P.E.I.), Permanent™

Encompassing more than 65 kilometres of the island’s north shore, Prince Edward Island National Park offers a bounty of beaches, red sandstone cliffs, wind-sculpted sand dunes and sites such as the heritage lighthouse at Covehead Harbour and one of the country’s most popular heritage places, the 19th‑century farmhouse made famous by Lucy Maud Montgomery in her 1908 novel Anne of Green Gables.



Canpex 2018 

CANPEX is the acronym for CAnadian National Philatelic EXhibition, the first of which was in 2016.

CANPEX is one of a few National Level exhibitions and stamp marketplaces held annually in Canada. It is sanctioned by The Royal Philatelic Society of Canada and is part of the American Philatelic Societies "World Series of Philately".
