I bought this stamp at a bourse recently. I was wondering if the cancel is from Canmore near Banff? The spelling is different but was curious if it could be from that town. We stayed there during a vacation last year and found the history of Canmore fascinating. Perhaps there's some Canadian postal history folks here that could help.

The Canada.ca archives include an historical list of post offices and postmasters. It is likely Cannamore Ont., open 1880 to 1940. I am unable to paste a link here but a Google search of "postal archives Canada" will provide you one.
