John Waterhouse Daniel

For other people named John Daniel, see John Daniel (disambiguation).

John Waterhouse Daniel (January 27, 1845 – January 11, 1933) was a Canadian physician and Conservative politician.

Daniel served as an assistant surgeon in the United States Army from 1865 to 1871.

After a three-year term as an Alderman in Saint John, New Brunswick, he was elected Mayor, a post he held from 1900 to 1902.

Elected to the House of Commons four times, Daniel represented Saint John federally from 1904 to 1911. Less than a month after his final election in 1911, Daniel resigned, triggering a by-election which John Douglas Hazen won by acclamation. In 1912 Daniel was appointed to the Canadian Senate, where he sat until his death.
