Martin Lemay (born March 19, 1964 in Amos, Quebec) is a politician in Quebec, Canada. He is the Parti Québécois (PQ) Member of the National Assembly (MNA) for Sainte-Marie–Saint-Jacques in the National Assembly of Quebec.
He studied history and sociology at the Université du Québec à Montréal. He also received a post graduate certificate in public management at the École nationale d'administration publique.
Lemay began his political career in municipal politics being a councilor for the district of Sainte-Marie in the Montreal region from 1994 to 1998. In 2000, he was president of the Ville-Marie borough. When Pierre Bourque tried to be elected MNA for the Action démocratique du Québec (ADQ), he became leader of Vision Montréal, which was then the Official Opposition party against Gérald Tremblay.
