Okay now I remember watching a video on the Trangia stove in action as was quite impressed. But to get the kit is over $100 at mec.ca

Sierra Combo - $65 US for the stove and stand. The stoves are cheap but that stand is the bomb.com - sturdy, compact, light and windproof. You can get Ti but for canoe tripping, SS is plenty light enough.
The only other thing I bought is a Trangia fuel bottle. They aren't necessary but I really like the lock and deliver function on them. Never had it leak. I never leave fuel in my stove, even though I could (it's hard to douse them without getting burned) but after a few times of use you should be able to estimate how much you need to boil your water... I usually can get it so it burns about a minute after I pull the pot... better than running out, it is a bit tricky to refill the stove hot because the fuel vaporizes so quickly... I usually let it sit for a couple minutes before refueling a reusing.
