Niagara Regional Council
The Niagara Regional Council is the governing body of the Regional Municipality of Niagara in Ontario, Canada. Council meets at Niagara Region Headquarters in Thorold, Ontario.

The council is composed of a regional chair, the 12 mayors of the constituent municipalities, and 18 regional councillors, all elected to 4-year terms.

The regional chair of the Niagara Regional Council is not directly elected by the residents, but rather chosen by the council members themselves. While any eligible voter in the region can be considered for the position, the regional policy typically selects the chair from among the 30 council members elected in the previous municipal elections. Once chosen, the regional chair must relinquish their seat as a municipal councillor, triggering a process for the municipality to fill the vacancy. Former Ontario cabinet minister Jim Bradley was regional chair from December 2018 until his death on September 26, 2025.
