John Phillips (June 16 1810 – ) was an English-born political figure in New Brunswick, Canada. He represented Restigouche County in the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick from 1870 to 1878 as a Liberal member.

He was born in Westmorland and educated in England. He immigrated to New Brunswick in 1831. The following year, he married Catherine McCarthy. He ran unsuccessfully for a seat in the provincial assembly in 1861 and again for the House of Commons in 1867.

His daughter Elizabeth married Joseph Cunard Barberie.
