Paul-Émile Côté (9 September 1909 – 3 June 1970) was a Liberal party member of the House of Commons of Canada. He was born in Montreal, Quebec and became a lawyer by career.

He was first elected at the Verdun riding in the 1940 general election then re-elected there in 1945. With the riding changed to Verdun—La Salle, he was re-elected again in 1949 and in 1953 when his riding reverted to the Verdun name. Côté resigned his seat at the end of 1953 to accept an appointment as a Quebec Superior Court judge. Yves Leduc, also a Liberal, succeeded Côté at Verdun in a March 1954 by-election.
