Linda Douma (born 1944) is a former Miss Canada.

Douma was born in Tofino and raised in Sidney, British Columbia, where her family moved when she was an infant. She studied anthropology at the University of Victoria.

Her selection in 1965 as Miss Canada was based on a talent competition, where she sang a folk song, and on her appearance in a bathing suit and in an evening dress. Her prizes were a $1000 scholarship and $5000 in various tokens, which included a watch, a necklace, a console radio-phonograph, a wardrobe, and a three-week trip to Hawaii. She was also secured a job with an annual salary exceeding $5000, and was selected to represent Canada at various public events around the world.
