Frederick Donald MacKenzie, (December 18, 1882 – October 13, 1970) was a soldier, teacher and Member of Parliament in Canada.

Mackenzie was born in Presqu’ile, Ontario and was educated at Owen Sound Collegiate and Vocational Institute and Queen’s University where he earned a bachelor of arts.

He served during World War I with the Queen’s University Hospital Unit from 1915 to 1916 in Egypt and the Dardanelles. He was subsequently a Lieutenant with the Canadian Field Artillery from 1916 to 1919.
