Could this be him also? Found in the Alberta, Canada, Homestead Records, 1870-1930

Name: James Fredrickson
Gender: Male
Birth Country: Norway
Application Date: 11 Jul 1912
Homestead Place: Alberta, Canada
Residence Year: 1912
Residence Place: Bounty, Saskatchewan, Canada
File Number: 2745382
Coordinates: SE
Section: 34
Township: 23
Range: 6
Meridian: 4

Not transcribed from the handwritten document is the information that he was born in Bergen. (Which probably should be taken to mean "in or near Bergen".)

Edit: Maybe not very likely, given the distance. Also, wouldn't an adopted son automatically become a Canadian citizen, which the homestead applicant wasn't?

James would be an unusual name for a Norwegian. Mostly I've seen Jens become James stateside.

Long shot possible:

Doesn't it say adopted son -- fils adoptif

If he actually came in 1899, he should also be in the 1901 census. His occupation is transcribed as Narigateur but might it not be Navigateur instead?

If he was a sea faring man, maybe this is he in 1901 (also ripples on the details):
