Booklets of 30 are tough to find in normal condition... this one is outstanding.

Have you reported it to Canadian Stamp News?

re: 2016 UNESCO World Heritage Sites Booklet of 30

Thanks for your comments David & Jacques.
There is actually a good story to go with this booklet ... good for me, it would appear.

Last Thursday, I was at my local Shoppers Durg Mart postal outlet mailing some auction lots. I had the lady there provide me with actual stamps for the envelopes I had. I placed the stamps on these envelopes and, YES, I used their canceller to cancel the stamps. I was about to leave and my personal favourite postal lady appeared from the back office. She says "Well you finally show up here!! Where have you been? I've got a booklet that I think you may have an interest in! You do collect mistakes, right?" She had held the booklet for me for over 3 months. It appears that a customer purchased the booklet and when the stamps did not come off the paper correctly, they returned it to my 'friend'. That is how I acquired this booklet.

...the rest of the story!
