The Selkirk Colony was established in 1811 by Thomas Douglas, the 5th Earl of Selkirk, to provide a settlement for displaced Scottish Highlanders and other settlers facing economic hardship. It aimed to create a sustainable agricultural community in the Red River area of present-day Manitoba, Canada, as part of a larger vision to promote agricultural development and counteract the fur trade's dominance. The colony also sought to alleviate overpopulation and poverty in Scotland following the Highland Clearances.
