fastening cedar shingle siding to XPS
I live in Canada where we have pretty harsh winters. I plan to build my home with cedar shingles for the siding. I also want to cover the plywood sheathing of the walls with 2 inch thick XPS foam for extra insulating R value. What would be the best way to fasten the cedar shingles to the structure with the foam panels in place?

Screw on 1x3 rain screen and staple the shingles to the rain screen.
