An interesting site with good ideas on packrafting in Canada:

I am the author of the article, glad you found it useful and thanks for posting it here.
I wrote some more about my packraft at
http://www.trailpeak.com/index.jsp?con=article&val=4340*ev
and we have several people at trailpeak who are doing a number of adventures in Canada
this year with packrafts.
I will be in the north, paddling inlets of the west coast at Prince Rupert and Kitsault,
and will also visit Fort Selkirk on the Yukon river and various places in the southern lakes
near Atlin. At the same time I will test my new SPOT satellite messenger from
http://findmespot.com and will report on my trips and test results at http://www.trailpeak.com
