    From Trails to YouTube: Curtis Lafleche’s Outdoor Journey
    2026/04/22
    On this episode of Backroads Bill, we sit down with Curtis Lafleche, a Northern Ontario outdoorsman who has turned his passion for the backcountry into a growing presence on YouTube.

    What started as simple walks quickly turned into a deep curiosity about the land, eventually leading to backcountry trips, canoe expeditions, and a love for exploring the wild spaces of Northern Ontario . We also dive into how Curtis made the leap from private adventures to sharing his experiences online.

    From filming solo trips and learning the ins and outs of content creation, to finding his own voice without trying to copy others, he talks about what it really takes to build something authentic in the outdoor space.

    A Lifetime of Weather: David Phillips Reflects on Over 50 Years of Predicting Canadian Climate
    2026/04/15
    In this episode of Backroads Bill, we sit down with one of Canada’s most recognizable voices in weather, climatologist David Phillips, for a conversation that spans more than five decades of forecasting, storytelling, and scientific change.

    From his early days with Environment Canada to becoming a familiar presence on The Weather Network, David reflects on how both the science and the public’s relationship with weather have evolved. We talk about how forecasting has changed, from simple observations to advanced technology powered by satellites and supercomputers, and why predicting the weather is still as challenging as ever .

    The conversation also dives into the bigger picture. David shares how climate change has reshaped not just long-term trends but the day-to-day weather Canadians experience, with storms becoming more intense and patterns less predictable. Along the way, he offers stories from across the country, highlighting the moments where weather has left a lasting impact on people and communities.
