Paul Lane is a Canadian politician in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, who represents the electoral district of Mount Pearl South in the Newfoundland and Labrador House of Assembly.

First elected in the 2011 provincial election as a member of the Progressive Conservative Party of Newfoundland and Labrador,[1] on January 20, 2014 he crossed the floor to the Liberal Party to protest the leadership of Premier Kathy Dunderdale.[2] In 2016 he was suspended from the Liberal caucus due to his opposition to the 2016-17 budget.[3]

Born and raised in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Lane resides in the suburban community of Mount Pearl, where he was a city councillor and deputy mayor prior to his election to the provincial legislature.
