Kingsclear Youth Training Centre was a Canadian youth detention centre in Island View, New Brunswick, approximately 10 km (6.2 mi) west of Fredericton.

Opened in the 1940s, the facility served as the provincial male youth detention centre, Kingsclear closed in the mid-1990s after the modern New Brunswick Youth Centre was built as a replacement.

Karl Toft was one of the guards at Kingsclear and was convicted of committing 34 sex crimes against inmates between the mid 1960s and the mid 1980s. He has admitted to raping over 200 boys in a 35--year period. Other guards have been alleged to have also raped boys at Kingsclear.
