Canada is an unincorporated community in Pike County, Kentucky. Canada is located on U.S. Route 119, 13.8 miles northeast of Pikeville. There are three possible scenarios for the origin of the name "Canada". One possible explanation being that Canada is the Huron-Iroquois word for settlement, since the area once had a large population of Native Americans. The other explanation involves Zebulon Pike, a general in the War of 1812 who most of Pike County is named after. Pike died in Canada, which leads to this being a possible origin of the name "Canada" Third is that 90% of the locals have the same last name of Canada.”
