Fred Dominelli is a Canadian businessman and municipal politician in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
He is perhaps best known for speculatively purchasing land directly in the path of a proposed major roadway project in Toronto.
On May 22, 2003, City Council appointed Dominelli as an interim councillor to fill the vacancy in Ward 17 that was created when Betty Disero resigned her seat.
Dominelli and business partner Dale Martin purchased land directly in the path of the proposed extension.
He stood to make a profit of several million dollars from the sale of that land if the extension was built.
