Robert Paquette (born July 2, 1949) is a Canadian folk singer-songwriter. In 1970, he worked with the student theatre group at Laurentian University, composing songs for the Franco-Ontarian stage musical Moé, j'viens du nord, 'stie! The troupe, which was one of the creative initiatives of the CANO artistic movement, evolved into the Théâtre du Nouvel-Ontario. Paquette released his first album as a soloist in 1974, and toured Canada and the United States. He performed at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa in 1975. In 1978, Paquette represented Canada at the Festival de Spa in Belgium.
