Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I hired someone, and he couldn't
get it down either. He thinks caulk got in and made everything stick. (The
last owners caulked the canopy to the ceiling, it got on the screws too
which I finally got out.) He's bringing a crowbar on Monday.




Like I said, if the contractor plans to use a crowbar it's time for
another contractor...he does not know what he's doing...and using a
crowbar will of course ruin your ceiling and worse still...the mounting!


If you want better help you should post a good, close up photo
of as much of the interior section as you can get.
