It displayed our love of the canoe and the honor we all feel to be Canadians, living in this great country. This weeks post will be two videos of the event. Day one, featuring the opening ceremonies, some interviews with a few of the [...]

The day before the Outdoor Adventure Show, I received an email from David Bain.

I was incredibly flattered, and honoured, and, after establishing that I am mainly a kayaker, and finding out that this fact seemed irrelevant as I do also love to canoe, I said I would think about it.
