North West River (which was formerly known as Fort Smith) is a town with over 250 years of history. It was in 1743 that French fur trader Louis Fornel established a year round trading post at present day North West River. The English took over the territory as spoils of war in 1763 and the region's vast salmon and cod stocks to supply its navy. Settlement, however, didn't start until 1785, 10 years after Captain Cartwright began fishing and trading south of Hamilton Inlet. This first wave of European settlement lasted until 1835. 1836 marked the arrival of the Hudson's Bay Company. They established two main trading posts: one at Rigolet; the other at North West River. After buying out competing fur traders the Hudson's Bay Company enjoyed a trading monopoly that would last over 100 years. It also sparked a second wave of European immigration and settlement.
