  «I grew up near Thunder Bay in the 70's and made many a crude wooden boat, imagining them making their way to the sea because of this film. Should be shown in school still. May get one or two kids off their smart phones! » — Dragoon, 19 Jan 2013

  «Not only is this a great - and Oscar winning - short film, but it's based on a wonderful book (of the same name). The book is a lesson in the formation and geology of the region, but wondrously told; you'll hardly know you've just been educated. ;)» — Jaq, 23 Avr 2012

  «Loved this film in elementary school and purchased a VCR tape 10 years ago. I wore it out lending it to all my friends with children! Is there any information available on the making of the movie? I have always wondered how many models were lost during filming! » — Hanggliderpilot, 26 Fév 2012

  «I remember seeing this film as a young boy in elementary school, it was a pleasure viewing it again. Whatever happened to the carving? Where is it now?» — nlartist, 24 Déc 2011

  «toshiromifune “But seriously, is he in a museum or archive?” He is at the Museum of Civilization. Well at least one of him, Bill Mason made a couple of them for the movie. I believe that not all of him were carved since a mould also exists.» — PMD, 6 Oct 2011

  «What a nice retelling! I first read this book in a one-room school house landlocked on the prairies in the late fifties. Though I was wise enough to see that it was a sugar-coated geography lesson about the St. Lawrence seaway, the tiny carved figure dwarfed by the gigantic forces around it appealed to my prairie soul. Decades later I tracked the book down down and bought my own copy. I've come a long way over the years, but Paddle to the Sea, where are you now? And what of the boy that carved you?» — AnonNFBfan, 3 Oct 2011

  «Interesting! I remember seeing this in elementary school in the early 1970s, and thinking it was rather contrived, and maybe a little silly. I don't know if I'm wiser now, or just more sentimental, but it definitely has charms I overlooked before. I'm glad I got a second look at it!» — reid, 2 Oct 2011

  «@edwinyoung - It's not exactly a place to buy toy canoes, but here's a pretty cool little website that shows you how to make them from scratch: http://familyfun.go.com/crafts/toy-canoe-665368/» — kruscito, 7 Sep 2011

  «Hi. I remember this film very well from elementary school and just recently watched it again as an adult. Does anyone know if replica toy canoes are available for purchase? Thanks! Ed» — edwinyoung, 7 Sep 2011

  «Le 27 août 2011, j'ai découvert l'un de ces bateaux sur la rive de l'Île d'Orléans. Une indication, un numéro, m'indiqua la provenance de Little Red. Ce dernier dut passer par la ville de Québec, par Montréal, par Toronto, par le lac Huron et par le lac Supérieur. Une aventure de 2 500 km qui prit naissance à Marquette, au Michigan, où je rejoignis Judith Smith, une enseignante à la retraite. Je mettrai des photos en ligne au cours des prochaines semaines. http://www.quebeckayak.com/article/2011/paddle-of-the-sea/» — Ornithorynque, 5 Sep 2011

  «Bonjour Luc, La version française de ce film sera ajoutée en septembre 2011 sur ONF.ca - pendant la semaine du 12 septembre pour être plus précise. C'était déjà dans nos plans de la rendre accessible rapidement. Merci de votre intérêt!» — cperreault, 9 Aoû 2011

  «Dommage que la version francaise "vogue à la mer" n'est pas disponible, ni en ligne, ni en DVD......pourtant la version anglaise "paddle to the sea" elle, est disponible ici. Pourquoi ?» — Luc, 9 Aoû 2011

  «Paddle to the Sea was one of the first books that I read from the public library when I was very young. I have seen the movie before but really enjoyed it again now that I'm in my mid 60's. It brings back fond memories.» — highhillfarm, 4 Fév 2011

  « I remember seeing this film in grade school several times in the late 70s. Then in the 90's I had the pleasure of meeting Bill through his daughter Becky who was teaching canoeing. I saw several Paddle models at their house on Meech Lake in the Gatineaus. It took me a few minutes to realise what I was looking at. I love this film and I am introducing my kids to it now.» — nostalgia, 23 Jan 2011
