About RMC The Royal Military College of Canada was founded by Royal Charter in 1876. Located on a prime waterfront location, RMC is situated close to Queens University in which to share academic resources and to downtown Kingston for all amenities. The RMC peninsula, Pt Frederick, has played an inportant part in Canadian History. The first military establishment was settled in 1789 under Count Frontenac and in During the War of 1812 it served as the major naval station in Upper Canada. The Dockyards built several Royal Navy ships that patrolled the Great Lakes including the 102 Gun HMS ST LAWRENCE.. In Later years, both Fort Henry, built to guard against US invasions and Fort Frotneac, sprouted up on either side of the peninsula marking the importance of the waterway. Several original buildings still exist on the college campus.
