Sydney Arthur Fisher, PC (June 12, 1850 – April 9, 1921) was a Canadian politician.

Born in Montreal, Canada East, he was educated at the High School of Montreal, McGill University, and finally Trinity College, Cambridge.[1]

A farmer, he first ran for the House of Commons of Canada in an 1880 by-election for the riding of Brome. Although defeated, he was elected in 1882 and 1887. A Liberal, he lost to the Conservative candidate Eugène Alphonse Dyer by 3 votes in the 1891 election. He was elected again in the 1896 election and was re-elected in 1900, 1904, and 1908. He was defeated in 1911 and in a 1913 by-election. From 1896 to 1911, he was the Minister of Agriculture.

There is a Sydney Arthur Fisher fonds at Library and Archives Canada.[2]

He was the uncle of Philip Sydney Fisher.
