Harold William Culbert (16 May 1944 - 1 March 2005) was a member of the Canadian House of Commons from 1993 to 1997. By career, he was a Chartered Accountant and a businessman, including work in insurance sales.

Culbert was born in Woodstock, New Brunswick and was once that community's mayor from 1980 to 1992.

He first campaigned for the Liberal party in the Carleton—Charlotte electoral district in 1988 but lost to Progressive Conservative candidate Greg Thompson. He defeated Thompson in 1993 and served in the 35th Canadian Parliament. For the 1997 general election, Culbert and Thompson would again compete, this time in the restructured riding of Charlotte. Thompson regained his seat in Parliament and Culbert never returned to federal politics.

Harold Culbert died of heart disease in a hospital whose location was unspecified in obituaries.
