Nathalie Roy MNA (born May 8, 1964) is a Canadian politician. She is a member of the National Assembly of Quebec for the riding of Montarville, first elected in the 2012 election. From 2018 to 2022 she served as minister of Culture and Communications. Prior to her election, Roy served as a journalist and news anchor with TVA Nouvelles.

In August 2016, Roy came out as against Burkini and Hijab, saying these are accessories of Radical Islam.

In August 2019, as minister of Culture and Communications, Roy announced the allocation of CA$15 million to preserve the cultural heritage that the churches of Quebec embody, and CA$5 million for the requalification of places of worship.

Following the 2022 Quebec general election, she was re-elected in her riding of Montarville. In the first session of the 43rd legislature, she was elected by her fellow members to the position of President of the National Assembly (or speaker). She is the second woman to serve as president of the national assembly after Louise Harel in 2002.
