In 1991, the Canadian Military Mail Study Group had a book published by the BNAPS titled, "A Canadian Military Postal History Anthology" with articles contributed by different members. One article in the book discusses the West Coast Black-out cancellations from 1942 to 1945.
There are other books, which, unfortunately, I do not have. One other good reference would be the book titled "The Wartime Mails & Stamps / Canada 1939-1946" by H.E. Guertin. It was published in 1970, but, on occasion, can still be found in auctions.
Hope this helps?
