Éléonore Sioui (May 20, 1920–March 2006) was a Wyandot healer, writer, and activist who has been described as the "spiritual mother" of all Wyandot people. She was born in the First Nations reserve of Wendake, Quebec, Canada, and raised by parents who emphasized traditional Wyandot teachings and the importance of education. A renowned healer in Wendake and beyond, she saw writing as medicine and used the written word to critique the Government of Canada's assimilationist policies. At age 68, she became the first Indigenous woman in Canada to receive a PhD, and in 2001, she was inducted into the Order of Canada.
