  • Tori Baird is an avid canoeist and backcountry adventurer who had tripped on countless remote wilderness rivers across Canada (East Natashquan in Northern Quebec, the Porcupine River in Northern Saskatchewan, the Mountain River in the Northwest Territories - to name a few). She has also completed a 100 mile, 8 day backpacking trip through the Rockies from Jasper to Grand Cache.
    Tori is the founder of Paddle Like A Girl program, which is a workshop that teaches women to go off on their own canoe trips. Her goal is to instil confidence in the participants to start planning and executing their own backcountry journeys. The workshops cover all the basics of backcountry canoeing, from trip planning and map reading to meal prep, waterproofing gear and fire lighting, but the main focus is on paddling skills.
    Tori has contributed to Outpost Magazine, Explore Magazine, has been a guest on several podcasts, and was featured in Export Development Canada’s profile of Nova Craft Canoe commercial in 2019.
    She’s also a mom; her son Wesley is now 3 years old and has tagged along with her on several interior trips. Her husband, Jim, is an outdoor film maker, writer and was the winner of History’s Alone show - season 4.

    Thank you very much. I fell in love with the Bairds and Tori specially. Getting to see her in a normal environment and hear her views was grand. FDR couldn't do a better Fireside Chat.

    @ 8 minutes, a woman who has a 40# backpack with a toddler strapped to her back, while helping her hubby pull a stuck trailer from 4 foot of packed snow is calling another one a 'pretty bad a$$. Wow girl, you are right up there with them in my book.

    Enjoyed the interview with Tori very much. She is so honest and down to earth. Love seeing her presence in Jim’s utube videos and admire her love, resilience and toughness in handling Wesley. Yes, she underestimate herself. From the videos that I followed, I can see that she is intelligent and has great skills in handling problems and tight positions. She is a wonderful mother and I love to see Wesley joining the trips outdoors.

    As someone who spent my first four birthdays in the backcountry and raised two godkids on the trail, I love that Tori is taking her son out there. I have a hypothesis that the varied surroundings and sensory inputs are beneficial in early child development and cognition. That's awesome enough for a baseline child - but I bet it's especially helpful for a kid with greater developmental needs.

    Kevin I think I found the website you mentioned about water levels. It's showing water levels for Mississauga Lake.
    I'm guessing that the higher the water in the lake, the higher the water in the river as more water will be flowing over the dam??
    Remember I said I'm guessing. Really have no idea. Help!

    I have finally begun solo canoeing. Friends whose fears blur their view, call me crazy. But as soon as I leave the shore in sun or rain, calm or wind, my smile never leaves the entire trip. So I guess now my next challenge is do make better videos. I certainly want to help other ladies, no matter the age, to get out there and see that the wilderness in not wild but our garden, beautiful and rejuvenating.

    Such a great interview with an amazing person. Someone who constantly underestimates herself and thinks everything is luck. It isn't luck, you can tell that Tori has worked for everything. Hard work wins over luck every time. I love the fact that Tori and Jim take Wesley along with them! Such a great inspiration for other families that you can take your kids just about anywhere!

    There's a 40 Creek cream liqeur? 😲 I'm going to have to run out to the LCBO and check that out!
    As a 50+ y/o female, I LOVE going out solo. I'm a backpacker tho rather than paddler, an old shoulder injury from a trip on Opeongo a couple decades ago finished my canoe tripping!
    It's great to see Tori inspiring and teaching women to get out there and live the adventure. And to see Tori and Jim take their baby out to the backcountry, so he doesn't suffer the terrible effects of Nature Deficit Disorder, as so many kids do these days. Good on ya! Did you see the video on Chris Prouse's channel when she and Julia took their little guy out and they had a bear ramble up to the campsite? Julia is FIERCE! She's SuperMom!
    Thanks KC for another awesome virtual fireside chat.
