Depicts the Southwest Bastion of Lower Fort Garry and part of its surrounding wall surrounded by the facial value and the bilingual legend.

The Southwest Bastion is a low circular tower with a medium-pitched conical roof and forms part of the defensive perimeter of Lower Fort Garry. It is constructed of stone, with simple window openings and a rectangular wood door. The Southwest Bastion is a Recognized Federal Heritage Building because of its historical associations, and its architectural and environmental value.

The fort was established by the Hudson's Bay Company as an administrative centre to replace the original Fort Garry, severly damaged by the flood of 1826. The fort was subsequently donated to Canada and became a National Historic Park in 1951.
