Martin Pederson (December 5, 1921 - September 1, 2001) was a Canadian politician, who was leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Saskatchewan from 1958 to 1968.
In the 1960 election, the first in which Pederson led the party, they won no seats in the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan. In the 1964 election, Pederson himself was the only MLA elected to the legislature. He was defeated in the 1967 election. He retired from the leadership the following year, and was succeeded by Ed Nasserden.
