Canning is a civil parish in Queens County, New Brunswick, Canada.

Prior to the 2023 governance reform, for governance purposes it was divided between the village of Minto and the local service district of the parish of Canning, both of which were members of Regional Service Commission 11 (RSC11).

Origin of name

The parish was probably named in honour of George Canning, British Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the House of Commons at the time. Shortly after the parish's erection Canning became Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

History

Canning was erected in 1827 from Waterborough Parish.

In 1835 the northwestern part of Canning was included in the newly erected Chipman Parish.
