Are mint Canadian stamps with postmarks worth as much as mint stamps without postmarks or as much as used stamps or are they of no value?
There is a bit of a conflict here. A stamp cannot be 'Mint' and have a postmark on it, particularly from Canada. There are a number of possibilities here:
The postmark is a First Day of Issue and someone asked the postal clerk to stamp them after buying the sheet. Not much value to them as they can't be used for postage and most collectors prefer a full cover with cancellation. You might get a bit more than what a used stamp would bring.
The postmarks are actually overprints. Canada has done a number of overprints to change value or commemorate special events. These could have good collectors value to them.
Someone re-gummed a bunch of used stamps. Possible, but no real reason for it. It is also possible to use a humidor to remove stamps from paper and 'reclaim' the gum on the back. Most collectors would classify these as used stamps.

If it is a high value item, you may be able to get more for it.
Are used stamps worth anything after usps postmarks?
For any collectible to be worth anything, it must be rare, unique and/or wanted by somebody else. Nobody is going to pay a lot of money for something they can buy anywhere, from anybody. Stamps, if they are kept unused and in mint condition, can maintain their face value and actually increase in value as time goes by. A used stamp, if it is still in good condition and the postmark is not too intrusive, is still worth something to somebody. Many of the most valuable stamps in the world have been used, but they were made many years ago and are considered rare and/or unique, that is where the value, if any, arises.
