Peter van Toorn (born 1944) is a Canadian poet,[1] whose 1984 collection Mountain Tea was a shortlisted finalist for the Governor General's Award for English-language poetry at the 1984 Governor General's Awards.[2]

Born in the Netherlands, Van Toorn moved to Canada with his family as a child. He attended McGill University, and taught for almost 30 years at John Abbott College.
