About the Program:
In 1873, the Northwest Mounted Police was formed to help police the Dominion of Canada’s new laws, prevent invasion, and help settle the new land in the west. We’ll take a virtual walk through the RCMP Heritage Centre to learn about the formation of the force, their journey west, and their role in the formation of Canada.
Learning Outcomes:
- Learn about the history and traditions of the force.
- Understand the importance of the force in Canadian History.
- Learn about the relationships between the force and Indigenous Peoples.
