John George Diefenbaker (18 September 1895 – 16 August 1979) was the 13th Prime Minister of Canada (1957 – 1963).
Diefenbaker was known by several nicknames during his career, "J.G.D." and "The Leader" (a moniker that continued to be applied to him even after his leaving the post of prime minister), but most affectionately as "Dief the Chief" or simply "the Chief".
