Thérèse Tanguay Dion (born March 20, 1927), popularly known as Maman Dion, is a Québécois television personality, and the mother of pop singer Céline Dion.

She was born on the Gaspé Peninsula, in Saint-Bernard-des-Lacs, Quebec, as was her late husband Adhémar Dion. Her parents were Antoinette (née Sergerie) and Laureat Achille Tanguay.[1]

Already well-known in Quebec as a powerful stage mother involved in her daughter's career, she later launched her own line of food products, Pâtés de Maman Dion, and became a host of cooking shows for TVA. She is also a sponsor of the Fondation maman Dion, an educational foundation which provides school supplies and clothing to underprivileged children.

She is the mother of 14 children.
