Detail InformationEdit

Fort Calgary was established in 1875 as Fort Brisebois by the North-West Mounted Police, located at the confluence of The Bow and Elbow rivers in what is now Calgary, Alberta.
The construction of the fort was initiated on April 10, 1875 by a federal order to force out whiskey traders from the area. Commanded by Éphrem A. Brisebois, “F” Troop travelled north from Fort Macleod to find a suitable spot on the Bow for the fort. On arrival at the location they made a makeshift boat with a wagon box and tarpaulins to cross the Bow. Corporal George Clift King was the first member of the troop to set foot on the location, which is why he is sometimes cited as Calgary’s first citizen. Construction began in August or September and the fort was completed in time to host Christmas dinner for the local residents.
