Laurie Scott (born c. 1963) is a politician in Ontario, Canada. She is a Progressive Conservative member of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario who represents the riding of Haliburton—Kawartha Lakes—Brock. She was a member from 2003 to 2009 and again from 2011 to the present.

Scott was born and raised in the village of Kinmount, Ontario, now part of the city of Kawartha Lakes. Her father, the late William C. Scott, was a federal Progressive Conservative MP from 1965 to 1993. She attended Loyalist College in Belleville where she obtained a degree in nursing. She worked as a registered nurse in several places in the U.S. and Canada including Toronto General Hospital.

In the Canadian general election of 2000, she ran in Haliburton—Victoria—Brock for the federal Progressive Conservative party, but finished behind Liberal John O'Reilly and Canadian Alliance candidate Pat Dunn in a close, three-way race. From 2000 to 2003, she worked as an assistant to Progressive Conservative Senator Consiglio Di Nino.
