Translation/Spelling of Cinnamon = Cannelle or Canelle?

Hello, Here in Canada the usual translation of cinnamon is "cannelle" but I see in this exercise it is shown as "canelle" with just one 'n'.  Can you please let me know if this is an alternate spelling or perhaps, a regional difference? Thank you in advance. 

As always, your exercises and site are terrific and very much appreciated!  :-)

It's possibly just a spelling error here. The references I see on-line spell it as "cannelle" with a double "n"
