CBC Radio Ottawa interviewed Headwaters Canoes (a Canadian custom built wood canoe company based near Wakefield, Quebec) during a taping of In Town and Out last weekend.

Stu Mills also took a few photos and interviewed Hugh Stewart about the shop.

Hugh Stewart explains how Headwaters Canoes got its start, and why December means Busy Time in this very unique workshop.

Update: December 24th, 2014 - Here is a YouTube clip from CBC (in French) of Headwaters Canoes with a guest appearance by Becky Mason.

CBC Radio Canada did a segment on the shop which aired December 19, 2014. This is a copy of the RDI Économie footage which shows how traditional wood canvas canoes are made at our shop, just North of Ottawa, Canada.
