Fort Collinson was a trading post operated by the Hudson's Bay Company (Post Number B.405)[1] located on Victoria Island in the Northwest Territories, Canada. It is situated on the Prince Albert Peninsula on the north side of Walker Bay, just north of Minto Inlet.[2]
Previously known as Fort Brabant,[3] the post opened in 1928 when it was moved from its prior location at Alaervik on the north side of Prince Albert Sound.[2] [4]
Named in honour of Sir Richard Collinson, an English naval officer and explorer of the Arctic, the post closed in 1939 when it was transferred to Holman, now Ulukhaktok.[2] [4]
