Dontae Richards-Kwok (born March 1, 1989) is a Canadian sprinter of Chinese-Jamaican descent. Richards-Kwok won a bronze at the 2013 World Championships in Athletics as part of the men's 4 x 100 m relay team, which also included Gavin Smellie, Aaron Brown, and Justyn Warner.

We really wanted to come out and get it done, and we did."
