J.-Wilfrid Dufresne (5 August 1911 - 30 June 1982) was a Progressive Conservative party member of the House of Commons of Canada. Born in Quebec City, Quebec, he held various other jobs such as interior decorator, promoter, teacher, a Quebec provincial public servant, a federal statistician for the Minimum Wages Commission.
Dufresne attended schools at the Saint-Sauveur orphanage, Saint-Sauveur Academy and St. Mary's College.
He was elected to Parliament at the Quebec West riding in the 1953 general election as a Progressive Conservative, defeating Liberal party incumbent Charles Parent.[3] Dufresne served only one term in Parliament before Liberal René Bégin won the riding back in the 1957 election. His next attempt to win a House of Commons seat was made in the 1972 election where he was a Social Credit candidate at Langelier riding, but was unable to unseat incumbent Jean Marchand. His last federal campaign was in the 1979 election at Québec-Est where he returned to the Progressive Conservative party, but was again unsuccessful.
