Lise Arsenault (born 14 December 1954) was a Canadian gymnast who competed in team gymnastics at the 1972 Summer Olympics and the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal.[1]

In the 1976 games, she helped the Canadian women's gymnastics team finish ninth, its best-ever Olympic placing up to that time, but she failed to qualify for individual competition. She lived in Brampton at the time.[2]
