If your image is only a single layer then after changing the canvas size, flatten the image before pasting in a new selection. I'm not sure of this but based on the behaviour it seems as if the canvas resize operation adds an alpha channel and sets the new border area around the old image to transparent. Flattening the image will remove the alpha channel.
