Clive Doucet (born 1946 ) is a Canadian writer and politician.
Doucet was born in 1946 in London, England to an Acadian serviceman from Grand Étang and an English war bride.
Doucet grew up in the city of Ottawa, Ontario, having moved there at the age of six.
He also spent some of his youth in St. John's, Newfoundland.
Doucet was raised as a Catholic, and his mother was Protestant.
He became a Quaker in 1980.

Doucet played for the Carleton Ravens football team for one season, and then moved to the University of Toronto.
A football injury took him out of that sport and into the sport of rowing.
He received a master's degree in urban anthropology from the University of Montreal.
In his younger days, he spent a summer working in a rock copper mine in British Columbia and helped build the National Arts Centre as a construction worker.
Before entering politics, Doucet was a municipal affairs policy advisor.
He served as the Ottawa City Councillor for Capital Ward from 1997 to 2010 and ran unsuccessfully for Mayor of Ottawa in the 2010 Ottawa municipal election, finishing third with 15 per cent of the vote.

He was an activist against the proposed Bronson Freeway, which propelled him to victory.
Central to his political platform has been the creation of a light rail rapid transit system across Ottawa manifested to date with the O-Train demonstration project (today's Trillium Line).
His most recent book, Urban Meltdown: Cities, Climate Change and Politics as Usual, was published by New Society Publishers in 2007.
In its review, The Walrus wrote "When Doucet speaks from the firm ground of experience as city councillor, his sharply logical solutions to municipal problems seem both hopeful and achievable."
On 6 July 2010, Doucet announced his candidacy for Mayor of Ottawa in the 2010 Ottawa municipal election.
Doucet joined a record number of 115 candidates running for municipal office in 2010, of which 15 challenged mayoral incumbent Larry O'Brien.
