Do you have a website for the B.C. place? I get mine from redden net company, but likely easier to buy a snowshoe kit from my friends at lure of the North. www.lureofthenorth.com. went to school with both the owners and done some trips with them. They know their snowshoes.

They take a bit of finesse to get set up, but are effortless on and off, and also to walk in. As said, I prefer my aluminum's for around beaver houses etc because of the manueverability.

Super light and can be used as fire starters if needed. Just scrape off the tail and hit it with a spark. This is what I use. US military issue , made in Canada. Wooden set from the 1930's hang on the wall in my living room.
