New issues.

6 February 2022 - Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II - A single self-adhesive stamp issued in booklets of 10 and a sheetlet containing a single, identical gummed stamp. The design is by Paprika and uses the classic Machin Head design from the sculpture by Arnold Machin that has been used on British definitive stamps since time immemoriam (1967 actually). The booklet is sold for $9.20. A dignified and interesting design which spices up the lives of Machin definitive collectors because now they can add a Canadian version to their collections even if only as a footnote.
