Henry Asbjørn Larsen (September 30, 1899 – October 29, 1964) was a Canadian Arctic explorer. Larsen was born in Norway, like his hero, Roald Amundsen. Like Amundsen, he became a seaman. Larsen immigrated to Canada, and became a British citizen〔At the time, British citizenship applied. In 1947, the Canadian Citizenship Act 1946 came into effect.〕 in 1927 (Canadian citizen in 1947). In 1928, he joined the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP).
== RCMP service ==

In 1928 the RCMP commissioned the for Arctic service. During its first voyage into the Arctic, Larsen served as mate under a captain that the RCMP hired, but, once in the Arctic, Larsen was appointed captain. Larsen commanded the ''St. Roch'' for most of the next two decades, rising to the rank of Sergeant. In the final years of Larsen's career, he was the senior RCMP officer in the Arctic. Following his command of the ''St. Roch'', Larsen was promoted to Inspector with responsibility for all Arctic detachments.
For the first twelve years that the ship was in commission, Larsen and his crew took supplies to scattered RCMP posts in Canada's far north. The ''St. Roch'' was specially constructed to be able to survive being frozen-in all winter. During the winter, the RCMP officers who formed her crew would use dog sleds to turn the ''St. Roch'' into a floating RCMP outpost. During this time, the ''St. Roch'' was the only Canadian presence in the far north, carrying out various governmental duties.
