Ludhiana Personality :: Kuldip Singh Kular
Dr. Kuldip Singh Kular, BSc, MBBS, MD, MPP was born December 12, 1948 in Ludhiana, Punjab, India. He is a physician and politician in Ontario, Canada. He is currently a member of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario, representing the riding of Bramalea – Gore - Malton-Springdale for the Ontario Liberal Party.
Kular was born to a Sikh family in Punjab, and received a medical degree from Guru Nanak Dev University. He moved to Canada in 1974, and completed two years of residency training in pediatrics at the IWK Health Centre at Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia. He then worked for two years at the Canadian Armed Forces Hospital in Halifax, Nova Scotia before starting a family practice in Campbell ton, New Brunswick in 1978.
In 1986, Kular founded a family and sports medicine clinic in Brampton, Ontario, a city which has a large number of recent Indo-Canadian immigrants. He was also a founding member of the Northern Indian Medical and Dental Association of Canada.
Kular was involved in a minor professional controversy in 1993, when he was charged with inappropriately prescribing narcotics and agreed to plead guilty to two charges of professional misconduct before the Ontario College of Physicians and Surgeons. The Progressive Conservatives attempted to use this against Kular in the 2003 election, but their efforts backfired when the specifics of the controversy proved much less serious than initially believed. (The narcotic substance in question was Tylenol-3, which includes Codeine, and had been prescribed at the request of a patient who did not actually need it. The situation was judged too minor to warrant a fine or suspension.)
In the 2003 election, Kular defeated incumbent Progressive Conservative Raminder Singh Gill by about 4000 votes in Bramalea-Gore-Malton-Springdale. He was a member of the Speaker of the Ontario Legislature’s multi-party delegation in June 2005 to the 43rd Canadian Regional Conference for the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association in St. John's, Newfoundland.
