'''Daryl Kramp''' (June 14, 1947 – February 8, 2024) was a Canadian politician. He served as the Conservative member of the Member of Parliament for the riding of Prince Edward—Hastings. He also served as the Progressive Conservative Member of Provincial Parliament for the riding of Hastings—Lennox and Addington.

==Personal life== Kramp was a onetime investigator with the Ontario Provincial Police. He was a municipal councillor and deputy reeve in the municipality of Madoc, Ontario where he lived until his death. He worked in the retail, wholesale and hospitality sectors. He also organized junior-level ice hockey tours, and was a part-time instructor at St. Lawrence College, Kingston.

Kramp died on February 8, 2024, at the age of 76.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.quintenews.com/2024/02/08/daryl-kramp-passes-away-at-76/ |title=Daryl Kramp Passes Away At 76 |date=February 8, 2024 |location=Belleville, Ontario |last=Durkin |first=Tim |work=Quinte News |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240209090001/https://www.quintenews.com/2024/02/08/daryl-kramp-passes-away-at-76/ |archive-date=February 9, 2024 |access-date=February 9, 2024}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.intelligencer.ca/news/region-mourns-loss-of-popular-veteran-politician-daryl-kramp |title=Region mourns loss of popular veteran politician Daryl Kramp |date=February 8, 2024 |last=Baldwin |first=Derek |work=The Intelligencer |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240209090132/https://www.intelligencer.ca/news/region-mourns-loss-of-popular-veteran-politician-daryl-kramp |archive-date=February 9, 2024 |access-date=February 9, 2024}}</ref>

==Federal politics== Kramp lost two federal election bids before his victory in 2004. In the 1997 election, he ran as a Progressive Conservative in the riding of Hastings—Frontenac—Lennox and Addington, finishing second against Liberal Larry McCormick. He ran in the same riding for the 2000 election, and this time finished third against McCormick and Canadian Alliance candidate Sean McAdam.

The Canadian Alliance and Progressive Conservatives merged in 2003 as the Conservative Party of Canada. In the 2004 election, Kramp ran as a Conservative in Prince Edward—Hastings, and narrowly defeated Liberal Bruce Knutson. The seat was previously held by Liberal cabinet minister Lyle Vanclief, who was not seeking re-election. He was re-elected in 2006 by a much larger margin.

Kramp described himself as a Red Tory, although his voting record was in line with the party's direction.

Kramp was a member of the Canada-China Legislative Association (CCLA) which provides a forum for discussing bilateral and multilateral issues facing both Canada and China.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.ourcommons.ca/members/en/daryl-kramp(695)/roles |title=Roles - Daryl Kramp |work=House of Commons of Canada |publisher=Parliament of Canada |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240209091247/https://www.ourcommons.ca/members/en/daryl-kramp%28695%29/roles |archive-date=February 9, 2024 |access-date=February 9, 2024}}</ref>
