Daniel Lionel Hanington (June 27, 1835-May 5, 1909) was a New Brunswick politician. Hanington was first elected to the provincial legislature in 1870 as a Liberal-Conservative but was defeated in 1874. He regained his seat in 1878 and entered the cabinet of Premier John James Fraser as minister without portfolio succeeding Fraser as premier in 1882. Hanington was sympathetic to Acadian rights and appointed a member of that community, Pierre-Amand Landry, to the senior cabinet position of provincial secretary. However, Hanington faced a leader of the opposition, Andrew G. Blair who had organised the Liberal Party into a powerful force. In 1883, Blair defeated Hanington's Conservative government in a Motion of No Confidence and won the subsequent election. Hanington continued as leader of the opposition but was unable to defeat Blair's Liberals in the 1886 election. He remained in the legislature until 1896 when he accepted an appointment to the bench as a member of the province's Supreme Court.
