The North-West Mounted Police (NWMP), established in Canada in 1873, wore red uniforms primarily for reasons of visibility and symbolism. The bright red color was intended to instill a sense of authority and respect, as well as to foster a strong national identity. Additionally, the red uniforms made the officers easily recognizable in the vast and often rugged landscapes of the Canadian West. This choice helped to promote both their presence and their mission of law enforcement in the region.
