Raymond C. "Ray" Bonin (born November 20, 1942) is a Canadian politician.
Born in Sudbury, Ontario, Bonin was a Liberal member of the Canadian House of Commons representing the riding of Nickel Belt, representing the riding from 1993 to 2008. Prior to entering politics, he was a professor at Sudbury's Cambrian College. He was also chairman of the French Catholic school board from 1976 to 1985, and was a city councillor from 1988 to 1991.
