Takashi Kawamura, Japanese politician
Takashi Kawamura (河村 たかし, Kawamura Takashi, born 3 November 1948) is a Japanese politician of the Nagoya-based Genzei Nippon (減税日本 "Tax Cut Japan") party, currently serving as Mayor of Nagoya. He was previously a member of the House of Representatives in the Diet (national legislature).

Kawamura's antics have earned him a peculiar reputation outside of Nagoya, but local voters see him as an exponent of Nagoya's unique culture who constantly speaks in strong dialect (Nagoya-ben). As of 2021, he has been elected for 4 terms as mayor, and there are 12 members of his Genzei Nippon party on the Nagoya City Council.
