Canim River

The Canim River is a river in the South Cariboo region of the Interior of British Columbia, Canada. It begins at the outlet of Canim Lake and runs 1.8 km to Canim Falls, then continues 8 km via a canyon cut into a lava plateau to Mahood Lake. A second outlet from Canim Lake, also part of the Canim River, flows over Mahood Falls and joins the Canim Falls branch.

"Canim" means a type of large canoe in the Chinook Jargon. The name was adopted in 1941. Previously, this stream and also Mahood River below Mahood Lake were officially named Bridge Creek.
