(2017-01-01/2024-02-21) Monarch, AB
Much to my dismay, after sending out my request for this pictorial cancel, I realized it was no longer in use, as of about 2017 (per this website). HOWEVER, much to my surprise, upon opening the envelope returned to me (which was canceled as in the top image, with the current date), the stamped cards had been beautifully canceled with the bottom image, bearing a date of 2017-01-01. So, at least as of February 2024, it is possible to request this stamp for non-official cancellations (i.e. not on in-circulation mail). Cool! (and so relieved to have not had the request go to waste.)
MONARCH PO
215 VICTORIA AVE
MONARCH AB, T0L 1M0
This cancel was released in 2006 and stopped being in use sometime in 2017 (unknown date), though it can still be requested.
