This article is about the geographic parish, former local service district, and rural census subdivision. For the former town, see Sackville, New Brunswick. For other uses, see Sackville (disambiguation).
For governance purposes it is divided between the town of Tantramar, the incorporated rural community of Strait Shores,[3] and the Southeast rural district,[4] with small border areas belonging to the town of Cap-Acadie.[a] All are members of the Southeast Regional Service Commission.[5]
Sackville was erected as one of Westmorland County's original parishes in 1786[11] with enlarged boundaries; most of the modern town of Shediac was added.
In 1827 the northern part of Sackville was included in the newly erected Shediac Parish.[12]
In 1880 the boundary with Westmorland Parish was altered, adding a large inland area to Sackville.[13]
In 1894 the existing boundaries were made retroactive to the erection of the parish.[14]
