John Coleman Calhoun (March 1871 – September 28, 1950)[1] was a politician in Alberta, Canada and a municipal councillor in Edmonton in 1906.

Calhoun was born in 1871[1] in Albert County, New Brunswick, where he remained until he moved to British Columbia in 1885.

He stayed there for ten years before moving to Alberta to engage in ranching and fur trading.

However, on May 7, 1906, John R. Boyle resigned from Edmonton City Council, and Calhoun was elected to finish his term (which ran until December of that year).

[1] He was survived by his wife, three sons and two daughters and was cremated shortly after his funeral service.
