Dominique Anglade is a Canadian politician, who was elected to the National Assembly of Quebec in a by-election on November 9, 2015. She represents the electoral district of Saint-Henri–Sainte-Anne as a member of the Quebec Liberal Party.
Anglade was formerly associated with the Coalition Avenir Québec. She ran as a CAQ candidate in Fabre in the 2012 election, losing to Gilles Ouimet, and served as the president of the CAQ from 2012 to 2013. She left that position to become CEO of Montreal International.
She cited objections to the CAQ's positions on ethnic identity and immigration for her decision to leave the party and run for the Liberals. She is the daughter of academic Georges Anglade.
