Ernest Albert Cleveland (May 12, 1874 – January 8, 1952) was a Canadian engineer and first commissioner of the Greater Vancouver Water District from 1926 to 1952.

[1][2] The Cleveland Dam in North Vancouver is dedicated in his honour.

He was appointed the first chief commissioner of the Great Vancouver Water District.

With Sydney Williams, Captain Phil Thompson, R. Parkinson (a surveyor), and a Mr. Knox of Duncan, he was in the second party to climb Grouse Mountain, on October 12, 1894.

On that trip they shot a blue grouse, giving the mountain its name.
