George Ewan McCraney (July 23, 1868 – March 18, 1921) was a Canadian lawyer and politician.

Born in Bothwell, Ontario, his father was Daniel McCraney, a lawyer and political figure who represented Kent East in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario. McCraney was educated at the University of Toronto where he graduated a B.A. in 1892 and an LL.B. in 1895. He was first returned to the Canadian House of Commons at a by-election held in February 1906 for the riding of Saskatchewan, after the resignation of the sitting MP, John Henderson Lamont. A Liberal, he was re-elected in 1908 and 1911 for the riding of Saskatoon. He did not stand for re-election in 1917.
