Corps of Canadian Voyageurs
The Corps of Canadian Voyageurs was raised in September 1812 by the British Army as a military water transportation corps. Its mission was to maintain the supply lines between Montreal and the western posts. The corps was disbanded in March 1813, and its mission was taken over by the Canadian branch of the British Commissariat Department, a department of HM Treasury, as the Provincial Commissariat Voyageurs. This corps was disbanded in March 1815.〔(''Canadian Military History Gateway'', "Voyageurs" ) Retrieved August 8, 2011.〕
==Organization==
The Corps of Voyageurs was organized on the initiative of the North West Company, and its ''bourgeois'' and ''engagés'' became the officers and men of the corps.〔(Andrew Hind, ''The Canadian Corps of Voyageurs'' ) Retrieved August 8, 2011〕 The Provincial Commissariat Voyageurs had one lieutenant-colonel, one major, one captain, ten lieutenants, ten conductors (sergeants acting as guides), and about 400 private men.〔(Robert Malcomson, "Batteauх in the British Service during the War of 1812", ''Northern Mariner 13(2003)4:17-28 ) Retrieved June 19, 2013.〕
