Albert Edward Douglas (December 9, 1860 – May 6, 1908) was a respected physician and influential political figure in Prince Edward Island, Canada.
Representing 2nd Queens as a member of the Liberal Party, Douglas served in the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island from 1900 until his death in 1908. His political career began with a by-election victory in 1900, following the resignation of Joseph Wise, and he was subsequently re-elected in the general elections of 1900 and 1904. In 1905, he was appointed Speaker of the Assembly, a role that underscored his leadership and parliamentary acumen.
Born in Head of Hillsborough, Douglas was the son of William Henry Douglas, a Scottish immigrant. He pursued his education at Prince of Wales College, McGill College, and New York University, reflecting a strong commitment to academic and professional excellence. In 1891, he married Barbara Anderson.
Throughout his life, Douglas resided in Breadalbane, Charlottetown, and later Hunter River, where he continued his public service until his untimely death from pneumonia at the age of 47.
