Compañía Northwest Express

Northwest Company Express: En los días de comercio de pieles, "expreso" se refería a la entrega rápida de correos y mensajes en lugar del transporte normal por canoa de mercancías. Un canoa expreso era simplemente un canoa normal sin carga para ralentizarlo. En invierno, se usaban zapatos de nieve y slides de perros. A lo largo del río North Saskatchewan había caballos. El primer expreso regularmente programado fue probablemente el North West Company Express que corrió por la ruta habitual desde el Lago Athabasca hacia el este hacia los Grandes Lagos. Después de 1814, otra ruta expreso corrió desde la boca del río Columbia hasta los Grandes Lagos. Esto evolucionó en el más conocido York Factory Express, operado por la compañía de Hudson's Bay Company.

Northwest Company Express: In fur trade days,^[when?] "express" referred to the rapid delivery of mail and messages as opposed to the normal transportation by freight canoe. An express canoe was simply a normal canoe with no cargo to slow it down. In winter, snowshoes and dog sleds were used. Along the North Saskatchewan River there were horses. The first regularly scheduled express was probably the North West Company Express which ran by the usual route from Lake Athabasca eastward to the Great Lakes. After 1814, another express route ran from the mouth of the Columbia River to the Great Lakes. This evolved into the better-known York Factory Express, operated by the Hudson's Bay Company.^[1]
