John Ellwood Madill (15 January 1915 – 5 December 1999) was a Progressive Conservative party member of the House of Commons of Canada. He was born in Melancthon, Ontario.

From 1952 to 1957, he was a municipal councillor for

Dufferin County.[1]

Elwood Madill was an insurance agent in Orangeville, Ontario when he won the local Progressive Conservative nomination for the Dufferin—Simcoe riding on 16 February 1963.[2] Madill won that seat in the federal election later that year. He was re-elected to a second term in 1965.

Due to riding boundary realignments in 1966, Madill campaigned in the newly formed

Ross Milne in the 1974 federal election
.

Besides his insurance practice, Madill was also a businessman and farmer during his career.
