Kanada Hulu
Provinsi Kanada Hulu (bahasa Prancis: province du Haut-Canada) adalah bagian dari koloni Kanada yang didirikan pada tahun 1791 oleh Britania Raya untuk menampung pengungsi Loyalis dari Amerika Serikat setelah terjadinya Revolusi Amerika. Provinsi ini berdiri dari tanggal 26 Desember 1791 hingga 10 Februari 1841 dan mencakup wilayah Ontario Selatan modern dan wilayah Ontario Utara di Pays d'en Haut. Istilah "hulu" di sini mengacu kepada posisi geografisnya di kawasan Danau-Danau Besar yang berada di atas Sungai Saint Lawrence, sementara wilayah Quebec di timur laut disebut Kanada Hilir.
