- Fort Simpson is a village in the Dehcho Region of the Northwest Territories, Canada. The community is located on an island at the confluence of the Mackenzie and Liard Rivers. Both rivers were traditionally trade routes for the Hudson's Bay Company and the native Dene people of the area. Fort Simpson is the regional centre of the Dehcho and is the gateway to the scenic South Nahanni River and the Nahanni National Park Reserve. Fort Simpson can be reached by air, water and road and has full secondary and elementary school service. The Mackenzie Highway was extended to Fort Simpson in 1970-71. The central section of the community is on an island near the south bank of the Mackenzie River, but industrial areas and rural residential areas are located along the highway as far as the Fort Simpson Airport, just beyond which is the Liard River ferry crossing.
- Fort Simpson ist eine Siedlung in der Dehcho Region der kanadischen Nordwest-Territorien. Sie liegt auf einer Flussinsel am Zusammenfluss des Mackenzie und Liard Rivers und war ursprünglich ein Handelsposten der Hudson’s Bay Company (HBC), für die die Flüsse wichtige Handelsrouten darstellten. Fort Simpson ist nach dem früheren Leiter der HBC George Simpson benannt. 2006 wurden 1216 Einwohner gezählt; eine Zunahme von 5 % gegenüber 2001, die abgeschwächt einer Zunahme von 11 % der Nordwest-Territorien insgesamt folgt. Die Bewohner sind vorwiegend europäisch-stämmig, eine Minderheit von ca. 7 % setzt sich aus indianischen Dene und einigen europäisch-indianischen Métis zusammen.
- Fort Simpson, dans les territoires du Nord-Ouest, est un village situé sur une île au confluent du fleuve Mackenzie et de la rivière Liard, qui servaient tous deux traditionnellement de route commerciale pour la Compagnie de la Baie d'Hudson et les tribus indigènes Dene de cette zone. Avec 1 200 habitants, Fort Simpson est le centre de la région Deh Cho et le point de passage vers la rivière Nahanni. Fort Simpson est joignable par voie aérienne, fluviale ou routière et dispose d'écoles élémentaire et secondaire. Le pape Jean-Paul II a visité et a célébré la messe à Fort-Simpson en septembre 1987. Il était censé y venir en 1984, mais l'aéroport éprouvait à ce moment-là de dures conditions météorologiques.
