Ilene,
JOG SA-18-16 is the Iquitos, Peru sheet. It was prepared by the
Institute for Applied Geosciences, Germany, and published in 1984.
Unfortunately, neither of the two names you're looking for is indicated
on the map. I also looked at some older maps of Peru to see if they
might be included there but with no luck.

The ornithological gazetteers published by the Harvard Museum of
Comparative Zoology can be helpful in the location of South American
villages and other localities, but the 1983 /Ornithological Gazetteer of
Peru /lists neither "Canada" nor "Tres de Mayo."
This gazetteer might be useful in identifying the position of other
geographic locations.

Hi all-
We have a patron who is hoping to locate several small villages in Peru
for a telecomm project. He was given the lat/long of these villages by a
contact in Peru, but when he goes to map them (on Google Earth), they
land in the middle of a river. We helped him find slightly different
coordinates (in GEONET) for three of the five villages and that should
help him a bit. For the two places we could not find reference to in
GEONET, we did manage to figure out what 1:250K map they'd be on (if the
map even exists and is detailed enough to show them). It would be SA
18-16. First question - does anyone have this map that they'd be willing
to look at for us and/or ILL to us? Second question - can anyone tell me
if this map was even made? Finally, if folks have other suggestions on
where to look to possibly find these villages, that would be great. Name
and his inaccurate lat/long are below:
They are in the Loreto administrative district of Peru.
3 degrees, 24 minutes, 50.62 seconds
72 degrees, 44 minutes, 19.17 seconds
(Village is apparently called Tres de Mayo)
3 degrees, 24 minutes, 52 seconds
72 degrees, 41 minutes, 3 seconds
(Village is apparently called Canada)
Thanks!
