Coordinator notes: Nice analysis! Agree on the later date being less likely P. canadensis. This individual shows characteristics of both P. glaucus and P. canadensis, and timing and location likely makes this a hybrid individual. In particular, the yellow-orange spots along the edge of the ventral hindwing are more square-shaped (P. glaucus would be crescent). The border between the blue/black and yellow on the ventral hindwing is also less scalloped, and closer to a straight line (P. glaucus would be scalloped - P. canadensis more of a straight line). Finally, although tattered, the ventral hindwing submarginal yellow band does not appear continuous, which you would see in P. canadensis.
