Jock Climie (born September 26, 1968 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada) is a retired Canadian Football League player who played the slotback position primarily with the CFL Montreal Alouettes. He is currently a sportscaster with Canadian sports television channel TSN as part of the CFL on TSN studio panel during the CFL season. Climie is also a labour and employment lawyer at the Ottawa law firm of Emond Harnden.

While attending Queen's University, Climie played college football for the Queen's Golden Gaels. His 1,091 receiving yards in 1988 was at the time the single-season record for Canadian university football; it has since been broken, first by Don Blair (University of Calgary), then by Andy Fantuz (University of Western Ontario); Fantuz played one more game in his seasons. [http://www.cisport.ca, the football records file.] Climie was the OQIFC conference's nominee for outstanding national player in 1988. He was inducted into the Queen's Football Hall of Fame. He earned his law degree at Queen's by attending its winter academic sessions, while playing CFL football in the summer and fall, taking six terms over six years to graduate.

In 1997, while playing professional football for the Montreal Alouettes, Climie was awarded the Lew Hayman Trophy as the top Canadian player in the CFL's East Division.
