Madawaska is a geographic parish in Madawaska County, New Brunswick, Canada. [4]
The parish consists of two discontiguous portions, separated by Saint-Joseph Parish. For governance purposes, the southwestern portion is divided between the city of Edmundston [5] and the town of Haut-Madawaska; [5] the northeastern portion is part of the Northwest rural district. [6] All three bodies are part of the Northwest Regional Service Commission. [7]
Before the 2023 governance reform, the northeastern portion of the parish formed the local service district of the parish of Madawaska. [8]
The parish was named for the Madawaska River. [9]
Madawaska was erected in 1833 from the northern part of Kent Parish, taking in most of modern Madawaska County and the northern part of Victoria County. [10]
In 1850 three new parishes were erected from Madawaska: Saint-Basile, Saint-François, and Saint-Léonard. [11]
In 1852 the parish was extended northward to include territory awarded in the boundary settlement with Lower Canada, [12] losing some area to Restigouche County in the process.
In 1874 the centre of modern Edmundston was added to Madawaska from Saint-Basile. [13]
In 1877 Saint-Jacques Parish was erected from Madawaska and Saint-Hilaire Parish also included part of Madawaska. [14]
In 1930 Saint-Joseph Parish included part of Madawaska. [15]
In 1946 Madawaska was affected by the major reorganisation of Madawaska County parish boundaries. [16]
Madawaska Parish comprises two discontiguous portions: the heavily populated southwestern portion and the interior northeastern portion, which lacks provincial roads. [2] [17] [18] [19]
The southwestern portion is bounded:
The northeastern portion is bounded:
Communities at least partly within the parish. [17] [18] [19] bold indicates an incorporated municipality or incorporated rural community
Bodies of water [b] at least partly in the parish. [17] [18] [19]
Parks, historic sites, and other noteworthy places at least partly in the parish. [17] [18] [19] [21]
