Joseph C. Donaldson (born January 12, 1891; died April 1973) was a politician in Manitoba, Canada. He was briefly a member of the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba, serving from 1949 to 1951.

Donaldson was elected to the Manitoba legislature for the Brandon City constituency in the 1949 provincial election. He was elected as a Progressive Conservative, supporting the coalition government led by Liberal-Progressive Premier Douglas Campbell.

The Progressive Conservative Party left the coalition government in the summer of 1950. Donaldson disagreed with this decision, and chose to sit as an independent. He resigned his seat on April 18, 1951, and did not seek a return to the legislature thereafter. He nonetheless remained active in the Progressive Conservative Party, and nominated Reginald Lissaman as the party's candidate for Brandon City in the 1953 provincial election.
