David Boothby (born 1944) was Chief of Police of the Metro Toronto Police, and later the Toronto Police Service, from 1995 to 2000.

Boothby was born in Keswick, Ontario. He joined the then Metro Toronto Police in 1964 and became a homicide detective in 1978.

Boothy's rise to the chief's post was seen as a change from the style of William J. McCormack, but he had a difficult time with the Toronto Police union boss Craig Bromell. His management style was seen by some as soft and contributed to his departure from the force.

He was succeeded by Julian Fantino.
