John-R. Luck (June 12, 1928 – July 25, 1988) was a Canadian politician who served as Mayor of Gatineau from 1971 to 1975 and again from 1975 to 1983. He was elected as the city's first mayor after a major amalgamation and incorporation in 1975 of the communities of Pointe-Gatineau, Templeton, East Templeton, West Templeton, Cantley, and Touraine. In the same election, residents voted in a referendum for the name of the new city to be the Ville de Gatineau. He is a former employee of the Canadian International Paper Company, where he worked for 30 years. He also served on Gatineau City Council from 1962 to 1971.[3][4] He was defeated by Gaétan Cousineau in 1983 for re-election.[5]
