Charles Elmer McIlveen (August 8, 1919 – May 4, 2007) was a Canadian physician and politician, who represented Oshawa in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario from 1971 to 1975 as a Progressive Conservative member. McIlveen was elected in the PC sweep, taking the seat for the working-class riding of Oshawa previously held by Cliff Pilkey and considered an NDP stronghold. In addition to serving as a member, or Chair, of several Standing and Select Committees of the Legislature, McIlveen served as the Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Transportation and Communication during the short-lived government of Bill Davis in 1975.

In the 1975 Ontario election, New Democrat Michael Breaugh easily reclaimed the seat.

A physician by profession, McIlveen died May 4, 2007, at the age of 87.
