Exhibit
      31.1 – Chief Executive Officer Section 302 Certification Pursuant to Section
      13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act.




I,
      Wm. Milton Cox, certify
      that:




1.           
      I have reviewed this quarterly
      report on Form 10-QSB of Gulf Western Petroleum Corporation;




2.           
      Based on my knowledge, this
      report
      does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
      material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the
      circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect
      to the period covered by this report;




3.           
      Based on my knowledge, the
      financial statements, and other financial information included in this report,
      fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of
      operations and cash flows of the small business issuer as of, and for, the
      periods presented in this report;




4.           
      The small business issuer's
      other
      certifying officer(s) and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining
      disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e)
      and 15d-15(e)) for the small business issuer and have:




(a)    Designed
      such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls
      and
      procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material
      information relating to the small business issuer, including its consolidated
      subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly
      during the period in which this report is being prepared.;




(b)    [paragraph
      omitted pursuant to SEC Release Nos. 33-8238 and 34-47986];




(c)     Evaluated
      the effectiveness of the small business issuer's disclosure controls and
      procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the effectiveness
      of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered
      by this report based on such evaluation; and




(d)     Disclosed
      in this report any change in the small business issuer's internal control over
      financial reporting that occurred during the small business issuer's most recent
      fiscal quarter (the small business issuer's fourth fiscal quarter in the case
      of
this
      annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
      materially affect, the small business issuer's internal control over financial reporting;
      and




5.            
      The small business issuer's
      other
      certifying officer(s) and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation
      of internal control over financial reporting, to the small business issuer's
      auditors and the audit committee of the small business issuer's board of
      directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions);




(a)    All
      significant deficiencies and
      material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over
      financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the small
      business issuer's ability to record, process, summarize and report financial
      information; and




(b)    Any
      fraud, whether or not material, that
      involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the small
      business issuer's internal control over financial reporting.
