Biography

George Taylor Fulford (6 May 1902 – 15 December 1987) was a Liberal party member of the Canadian House of Commons. He was born in Brockville, Ontario and became an executive and manufacturer by career, particularly as president of medicine manufacturer G. T. Fulford Co..
Fulford graduated from the University of Toronto and also attended at Harvard University.
He was elected as a Liberal to the Ontario Legislature in 1934 at the Leeds riding, serving under Mitchell Hepburn's government. After leaving provincial politics due to his defeat in 1937, Fulford was elected to federal Parliament at the Leeds riding in the 1940 general election. Fulford was then defeated in the following election in 1945 by George Robert Webb of the Progressive Conservative party. Fulford returned to Parliament by winning the riding in the 1949 election over a new Progressive Conservative candidate, John Lionel Carroll. After that term, Fulford was defeated by the Progressive Conservatives' Hayden Stanton in 1953. Fulford was further unsuccessful in unseating Stanton in the 1957 and 1958 elections.
Fulford switched his support to the Progressive Conservative party in 1970 following a dispute over federal Liberal language policies.
He died at hospital in Brockville aged 85.
