Prior to the 2023 governance reform, the parish was divided between the village of Charlo,[5] the Indian reserve, and the local service districts of Charleur and Lorne.[8] In the 2023 reform, Charlo merged with the town of Dalhousie to form Heron Bay, which annexed Heron Island and the communities of Benjamin River, Blackland, and New Mills from Chaleur;[5] Lorne and the remainder of Chaleur became part of the rural district.[6]
