I have a decent print done on canvas, but am wondering about the best way to mat and frame it. Same process as traditional fiber prints, or some other process?
 
I hope you have a substantial border....
The traditional way to do this is to stretch the canvas over a canvas stretcher frame - avaliable at artist supply stores.
The canvas is stretched over the frame and stapled from the back. This is then attached to the finished wood frame. (doesn't work for metal frames)
The Elevator does their canvas prints this way.

If anyone has successful experience with other answers, I am listening...
