Sainte-Anne is a geographic parish in Madawaska County, New Brunswick, Canada.[4]

For governance purposes it is divided between the town of Vallée-des-Rivières[5] and the Northwest rural district,[6] both of which are members of the Northwest Regional Service Commission.[7]

Before the 2023 governance reform, the parish outside the village of Sainte-Anne-de-Madawaska formed the local service district of the parish of Sainte-Anne,[8] part of which was included in Vallée-des-Rivières by the reforms
