Denmark is a geographic parish in Victoria County, New Brunswick, Canada.[1]

Prior to the 2023 governance reform, for governance purposes it was divided between the Indian reserve of Tobique 20 and the local service district of the parish of Denmark,[2] the latter of which was a member of the Northwest Regional Service Commission (NWRSC).[3]

Origin of name

The parish was named for the community of New Denmark.[4]
