Gerry; You might consider stopping at Waterfowl lake campground on the way down south from Jasper on the Icefield's parkway. It is unserviced, quiet, and has a very nice canoeing lake. We easily got in and are 39 feet overall so I am sure you could find a site for your rig. Looked quite easy to get a canoe to the water though maybe a carry from your campsite.
You would also find Bow lake worth canoeing from the picnic site at the end of the lake (no overnight campground here). Finally, people canoe on both Morraine lake and Lake Louise though normally with rental canoes they rent at the lakes. It would be a bit of a walk with your canoe from the parking to both of these lakes so maybe not practical.
There are a number of lakes around Jasper but I don't know which if any you can get to with a canoe. Worth checking though. Also check out Maligne lakes which is reached from Jasper.
