Canada Post Corporation 50th Anniversary of World War II

CANADA POST CORPORATION (CPC), from 1989 to 1995,  issued four stamps per year marking the 50th anniversary of World War II.  The stamps were designed to capture the "achievements and sacrifices during Second World War". The illustrations by Jean-Pierre Armanville and  monochromatic designs by  Pierre-Yves Pelletier  captured the graphic art style of the 40s. Postmark cancellations originated from Ottawa, Ontario and Nova Scotia.
