No. Canines are dog-like creatures including wolves, dogs, dingos, coyotes, foxes, etc. Bears are not related to this family, also known scientifically as Canidae. Rather, they are related to the bear family, being Ursidae (Genus Ursus or Ursa). Though they are known as "caniforms," this should never lead someone to the conclusion that they are directly related to such dog-like creatures.
