Paul -
This question has been discussed quite often in the last couple years. Try using the SEARCH function on the word "canoe" to find some of it. The general consensus is that you should NOT carry canoes on the roof of the TM. Because it is designed and built for light weight, the roof skin is not strong enough to carry much weight, and you could easily dent it.
In addition, as Camp2Canoe points out, with a canoe on the TM roof, when you reach your campground you can't open the TM until you unload the canoe, which can be a pain if you arrive after dark.
Carry your canoe on your tow vehicle - you'll be happier. I carry a pair of kayaks up there, and it works out quite well.
