Okay, don't panic yet.

If IRCC felt either you or your husband had tried to stop the application, it would be labelled as "withdrawn."

A status of "cancelled" is typically only assigned when IRCC has made a significant error. They may, on their end, create a new application and send you the details, or similar processes may need to be taken.

Submit a webform to raise a case-specific enquiry to ask why the status is cancelled.

The two primary reasons why applications are labelled cancelled are:

1. An administrative error on the part of IRCC that requires a new application to be created, and
2. IRCC determines you do not need what you applied for (ie, a citizen does not need a visa).

Balance of probabilities is that yours is an error, since you got AOR 1 and a work permit. If it is an OWP, then you can also be reassured that you most likely submitted the proper documents.

I hope that this is what has happened.

Yes it is an OWP. And I believe all documents were in order. So we shall see.

My sponsor (my husband) got an email from IRCC saying that "for administrative reasons" we were given a new application number (likely it was accidentally cancelled/deleted or something). After that, our original application was changed to "cancelled" in GCKey and we were able to link the new application number. It sounds like the same thing may have happened to you, but they didn't contact you first. I hope you get some clarification soon!
