About

Remains of former North-West Mounted Police outpost from which Canada's iconic federal police force (now the Royal Canadian Mounted Police) began their historic expansion westward. An interpretive centre operates seasonally (from early June), there's also a signed interpretive boundary trail (seasonal, 6AM-10PM).

Fort Dufferin is a former Canadian government post near the Canada–United States border at Emerson, Manitoba. The fort was used during the 1870s as a base for the North American Boundary Commission and the North-West Mounted Police (NWMP), and as an immigration station. It was designated a national historic site of Canada in 1937.
