Georges-casimir Dessaulles

Georges-Casimir Dessaulles (September 27, 1827-April 19, 1930), businessman & statesman and Canadian Senator who holds the record for the oldest serving politician. Elected to the Canadian Senate from Quebec in 1907 at age 80, Dessaulles served for 23 years before dying at age 102. Before becoming Senator, Dessaulles was President of the Bank of Ste Hyacinthe, and Mayor of Ste Hyacinthe, Quebec. His 100th birthday was marked as a historical moment in the Senate, because Dessaulles had became the second sitting senator to reach the age of 100 (the other being David Wark). At his death in 1930, Dessaulles was the oldest sitting politician in the world. To date, no one has beaten it.
