Frederick (Fred) Coles Stinson (December 28, 1922 – June 17, 2007) was a Canadian lawyer, politician, and diplomat, and the Member of Parliament for the federal riding of York Centre from 1957 to 1962.
Stinson became a school trustee in the early 1950s and soon afterwards was appointed chairman of the North York board of education.
During his time as a Member of Parliament, Stinson visited Mainland China, being the first sitting Canadian member of parliament to do so, and attended the United Nations as part of the Canadian delegation, witnessing Nikita Khrushchev's interruption of Harold Macmillan's speech.
He later founded Canadian University Service Overseas and was honorary consul for Upper Volta (now Burkina Faso).
After his parliamentary career ended, Stinson criticized the Diefenbaker government for what he felt was its anti-American stance.
