Andrew Peter Telegdi, PC (born András Telegdi; May 28, 1946 – January 23, 2017) was a Canadian politician. He was a Liberal Member of Parliament in the House of Commons of Canada from 1993 to 2008, representing Waterloo and the successor riding of Kitchener—Waterloo.

Telegdi was born in Budapest, Hungary. He emigrated to Canada with his family in 1957 as a refugee following the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. He attended the University of Waterloo in the 1970s. He served two terms as president of the Federation of Students, UW's student union, from 1973 to 1974. After graduating, he became executive director of Youth in Conflict with the Law, and was a board member of the Working Centre (St. John's Soup Kitchen). Telegdi was also appointed to the board of governors of Wilfrid Laurier University.

Telegdi was a city councillor for Waterloo City Council from 1985 to 1993. In this office he also sat as a city representative as a regional councillor for the Regional Municipality of Waterloo.

As member of the Ontario Liberal Party he ran for the Legislative Assembly of Ontario in the riding of Waterloo North in the 1990 provincial election. He finished a poor third against Progressive Conservative Elizabeth Witmer thus becoming the first Liberal to lose that riding in over 23 years. He won an easy victory to the House of Commons of Canada three years later and was subsequently re-elected four times, all by comfortable margins.

Telegdi was appointed parliamentary secretary to the Minister and Citizenship of Immigration on July 16, 1998, but resigned the position on May 18, 2000, as he objected to certain provisions in the government's proposed Citizenship Act. He was concerned with a clause that gave Canada's parliament, rather than the courts, the right to remove a person's citizenship, and in particular Helmut Oberlander's who was a constituent of the riding he then represented. Commenting on this issue, he said "For me, my citizenship comes before my party."

During this controversy, Telegdi argued that placing parliament above the courts on citizenship issues was similar to "what Hitler used to do". Telegdi was widely criticized for this comment and the Canadian Jewish Congress and called for Telegdi's removal from the Liberal caucus. In response, Telegdi noted that his stepfather was a Jewish refugee from Romania, and claimed his comments had been reported out of context in a sensational manner. He also issued the following statement: "What I have said is that a liberal democratic state such as Canada should never remove citizenship lightly. That is what Hitler did to Jews, Gypsies and many others. That is what Stalin did to millions. All totalitarian regimes have engaged in these practices." He also issued an apology for his comments to the House of Commons.

Telegdi also engaged in a public dispute with Liberal Party activist Warren Kinsella during this period. After Kinsella criticized Telegdi's comments on the Citizenship Act, Telegdi wrote a letter calling on Kinsella to resign as Jean Chrétien's spokesperson.

Telegdi was a liberal on most social issues. He was a strong supporter of gay rights and same-sex marriage. He also opposed the 2003 invasion of Iraq, expressing concern that the American approach of "pre-emptive strikes" would create new problems and undermine multilateral institutions.
