I received a very nice reply from Canada Post today in regards to my submission to the Stamp Selection Committee. The Director will ensure my request is brought to the attention of the committee who sound like they examine all requests and based on their "track" record do a pretty good job. He was kind enough to point out me that the Dancer was already on a stamp in 1999 as part of the "Horses Series". I was not aware of that but thrilled to hear it. He did not say anything about that disqualifying the idea so let's see what happens going forward. Above is a pic of the 1999 stamp designed by Pierr-Yves Pelletier of Montreal.
