I am looking in the Webster's Dictionary right now, and it lists both as acceptable spellings of the word.

Dictionary Cancelled

Both seemed correct to me, too, although both cancel and cancell did not. So I looked it up in Dictionary.com and found that cancelled, cancelling, etc., are OK alternate spellings (esp. British, it said) for canceled, canceling, etc., but cancell was not mentioned as an appropriate alternate spelling of cancel. And so, as the British say, there it is.

here in the US it's canceled, in Britain it's cancelled, but the British form is widely used here too.

Canceled - normal in US English
Cancelled - normal in Brit. English
Americans use one "l" and Brits two when forming the past/past participle/present participle of words ending in "l" where the stress is not on the final syllable:
traveled/travelled
leveled/levelled

canceled is the correct American Dictionary spelling, while in Britain, it is also the other.
