Hey, Canadians! Stan Rogers stamp available to pre-order!

[bethg]

Here! My husband has been obsessed with Stan Rogers for forever, so I've pre-ordered some extra stamps as a surprise for him.

For those of you not in the know, Stan Rogers was a major Canadian songwriter and folk singer.

The legacy he left behind was not only in music, but a legacy of major safety changes after the tragic deaths of Mr. Rogers and other passengers in the aircraft fire. Several of the safety precautions we take for granted today (smoke detectors in lavatory, walkway lights & overhead bin markers, quicker exiting paths/procedures, fire-blocking material...) were a direct result of regulatory/procedural changes implemented in the aftermath of the tragedy.

Just ordered my mint copies from Canada Post along with the new Bluenose stamps and a couple more.

I always wait till I get enough to make up $25.00 worth to avoid paying postage/shipping/etc.  Still can't get away from that HST though.

After all I am the holder of the title "cheapest stamper" on this site. At least in this country.

We're going to have to arm wrestle for that title!

Yes, I also ordered some of the Bluenose stamps, along with some international postage for my Postcrossing activities.
