Traditionnellement, les autochtones s’y rencontraient pour échanger les peaux de caribou contre l’écorce de bouleau servant à la fabrication des canots. Un premier comptoir a été érigé en 1690. Déplacé à quelques reprises, il fut installé de façon définitive sur la côte vers 1723. Une 2garde territoriale » formée de Cris assurait l’approvisionnement de la fortification en denrées et matériel.
