Nigel Stewart Wright (May 18, 1963 – September 30, 2025) was a Canadian businessman, lawyer, and political aide. He served as the thirteenth chief of staff to the Prime Minister of Canada, from September 2010 to May 2013, and was a senior managing director in the London office of Onex Corporation. Wright left the prime minister's office after it was reported that he had used his own money to permit senator Mike Duffy to repay the government for housing expenses that were the subject of media and political controversy.
