KISS NB (Keep It Simple Solutions, New Brunswick), founded in 2017 by former dairy farmer and ambulance volunteer, Gerald Bourque, is a defunct political party based in the province of New Brunswick, Canada.

The party was created to advocate for the creation of a provincial constitution that would put strict limits on the borrowing and spending powers of the provincial government of New Brunswick.{{cite web|url=https://kissnb.com/kiss-nb-political-party/|title=KISS NB POLITICAL PARTY|author=Gerald Bourque|date=September 1, 2020 |publisher=KISS NB|accessdate=29 April 2023}} As of 2020 and the subsequent years of the COVID pandemic, KISS NB has also taken a hardline stance against vaccine mandates and lockdown measures taken by the Blaine Higgs led provincial government.{{cite web|url=http://kissnb.com/cease-and-desist-order/|title=CEASE AND DESIST ORDER|author=Gerald Bourque|date=July 7, 2021 |publisher=KISS NB|accessdate=18 June 2023}}

While the party fielded candidates in nine ridings during the 2018 New Brunswick provincial elections, no seats were won.

The founder, Bourque previously ran in the riding of Fredericton-York in the 2014 provincial election as an independent, receiving 2.9 per cent of the vote.{{cite web|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/kiss-nb-political-party-1.4051485|title=New political party aims to keep it simple|author=Jordan Gill|date=April 2, 2017 |publisher=CBC News|accessdate=25 September 2018}}
