Little Current gets a new cancellation stamp

Little Current’s post office is getting a unique stamp on its outgoing mail. It’s all with a brand new, custom-designed cancellation stamp that celebrates two important pieces of Island heritage, to be put into permanent service on August 1 in celebration of Haweater Weekend.
The cancellation stamp features the iconic swing bridge spanning across near the top of the square stamp, with its edges reaching and interrupting the border around the perimeter. Beneath that sits the day’s date, and then a few lines indicating water and the words “Gateway to Manitoulin.” At the bottom, the stamp reads “LITTLE CURRENT ON” and the words “CANADA POST” and “POSTES CANADA” vertically line the left and right sides respectively.
