Gustave Évanturel (March 19, 1879 – February 9, 1934) was an Ontario notary and political figure. He represented Prescott in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario from 1911 to 1923 as a Liberal and Independent Liberal and in the House of Commons of Canada as a Liberal member in 1925.[1]
He was born in Ottawa in 1879,[1] the son of François-Eugène-Alfred Évanturel and Louisa Lee,[2] and educated at the Collège Bourget in Rigaud, Quebec and the Université Laval. In 1910, he married Marie Emilia Chevrier.[3] He was a notary public based in Alfred[2] and president of a mutual life assurance company, L'Alliance Nationale. He also was employed in the Privy Council Department. Évanturel was a strong supporter of bilingual schools in the province.[3] He was elected to the House of Commons in 1925, but was unsuccessful in attempts at reelection in 1926 and 1929.[1] He died in Alfred at the age of 54.[2]
