Josiah Bleakley (c. – 1754 22 January 1822) was a Canadian fur trader from Lower Canada.

Bleakley was an important member of the fur trade industry during his period of activity which was definitely in place by 1774. He was a contemporary of James McGill although he never achieved that type of stature in the trading community.
