I want to reuse an envelope that has an unused stamp on it

I have an envelope. I put a permanent stamp on it like a year ago. It had a letter inside and was sealed ("licked shut"). I ended up not mailing it. I removed the letter (about half the adhesive is still useable, the other has the torn paper). I put sticky envelope labels on the "from" and "to", and put new addresses on it. In other words, I know the stamp hasn't been used, but it could easily appear to be a used/sent letter that didn't have the stamp cancelled. Can I reuse this envelope or will it be mistaken as a reused stamp/envelope that has been through the mail already?

Canada is building a high speed railway from Toronto to Quebec City. Alto (the company in charge) recently announced its land acquisition plans. The project is expected to cost between 60 and 90 billion.

It's pretty clear that real estate is lower now than a few years ago. Certainly, more efforts could have been made by the feds to prop prices up. Is it possible Carney has allowed property values to fall, as it would lower their land-acquisition costs?

This isn't meant as a criticism or moral judgement. This could all be coincidental of course. But obviously if Alto had to buy in at 2022 prices, not only would be in position to pay more for the land they are buying, but they would also likely be facing far angrier landowners who don't want to sell given the FOMO around real estate at the time.
