Dollard is a small village situated on the historic Red Coat Trail in the southwest corner of Saskatchewan, Canada. It is 13 km west of the town of Shaunavon and 21 km east of the town of Eastend. It is approximately 100 km from the Montana USA border and 130 km to the Alberta border. In 2001 Dollard had a population of 75 living in 15 dwellings, a 30.3% increase from 1991. The village had a land area of 0.62 km2 (0.24 sq mi) and a population density of 0 /km2 (0 /sq mi).
The town Dollard was either named after the post office branch that was established in the location or the French soldier, Sieur de Dollard des Ormeaux, who perished with his men inside their fort when they were trying to repel a Huron invasion. He lit a keg of gunpowder and catapulted it at the enemy warriors. Unfortunately, the bomb snagged in a tree branch and fell back into the fort killing him and some of his men. The CPR chose this name for the new Saskatchewan hamlet in 1912.
