- Romeo Mathieu, CM (1917 – April, 1989) was a Canadian trade unionist, progressive political activist, and leading solidarity builder for the Quebec labour movement. Mathieu is best associated with his leading role in expanding the efforts of the United Packinghouse Workers of America (UPWA) into Quebec during the 1940s and 50s, and assisting with the merger between the UPWA and the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen of North America in 1968. He also made a significant contribution to the creation of the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union in 1979. In addition to his outstanding contributions to the labour movement, Mathieu was a standing member of the Quebec intelligentsia during the 1950s and 60s, and served as a formidable presence in advancing many of the province's social movements, including the Quiet Revolution.
