Morphology

canceler = cancel (transparent) = cancel + er

Standard agent/instrument formation from the verb 'cancel' with predictable meaning 'one that cancels'.

Etymology

Canceler comes from the verb cancel, which originally meant 'to cross out' — people used to draw lines across words or orders to show they were no longer good. The ending -er means 'a person or thing that does' something, so a canceler is someone or something that 'crosses out' or stops an event, order, or process.
