From my untrained American eye, I see:

- 2 layout lines and a guide dot
- Bottom Left Serif of the T has a vertical line of color which may or may not be evidence of a re-entry. Would need confirmation.
- Middle A in CANADA missing color, could be under-inking.

Help a southerner out, what stands out to you?
thanks.

I agree. I don't see anything significant. Maybe comparison to others with better commentary?

I like this very much with the guide dot and lines. It looks to my very lightly trained eye that it might be over inked on the top middle towards the right, the shading looks to be much heavier than on the left side. But as I said I have very light experience in the LQ's but trying to learn more every day. Hopefully someone with more experience will chime in!

Thanks ErrorsRock for showing this 2c LQ . Most plate flaws are described in Duckworth's "The Large Queen Stamps of Canada and their use" Unitrade Canada cat of this #24 describes many varieties.
Below is Figure III- 11 of this book- colour shades of the 2c Large Queen - but it is only a Scan (and not the best) and shades can vary with scans - No intention of hijacking your thread with the 2c shades !

No re-entry, even minor, that I can see sorry. Just looks slightly underinked. The shade is dark but I see no bluish, most likely late 1868 printing. My "feeling" is too early a printing to be from a re-entered state, for what little that's worth.
