Clementina Teti-Tomassi is a Canadian politician. She was previously a member of Montreal City Council, and represented the Marie-Clarac ward in the borough of Montréal-Nord.[1] She was first elected in the 2005 municipal election, for the ward's borough council seat. She was elected again in the 2009 municipal election, this time for the Marie-Clarac city council seat.
She is married to Tony Tomassi, a former member of the National Assembly of Quebec.[2] When her husband was implicated in an ethical scandal which resulted in his suspension from the Quebec Liberal Party caucus in 2011, both mayor Gérald Tremblay and civic opposition leader Louise Harel expressed public confidence in Teti-Tomassi, agreeing that she should not be assumed guilty by association.[1] After Mayor Gérald Tremblay resigned amid corruption allegations revealed during the Charbonneau Commission and the resulting political upheaval at city hall, Teti-Tomassi left Union Montréal and served the remainder of her term as an Independent. She did not seek re-election in the 2013 municipal election.
