George Elliott Clarke, OC ONS (born February 12, 1960) is a Canadian poet, playwright and literary critic who served as the Poet Laureate of Toronto from 2012 to 2015 and as the 2016–2017 Canadian Parliamentary Poet Laureate. His work is known largely for its use of a vast range of literary and artistic traditions (both "high" and "low"), its lush physicality and its bold political substance. One of Canada's most illustrious poets, Clarke is also known for chronicling the experience and history of the Black Canadian communities of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, creating a cultural geography that he has coined "Africadia".

Clarkes zweibändige Anthologie Fire on the Water (Lawrencetown Beach: Pottersfield Press, 1991) versammelte zum ersten Mal Texte der afrikanischstämmigen Diaspora in den kanadischen Ostküstenprovinzen, wo als Resultat von Sklaverei und Sklavenhandel vor 1800 sowie der Flucht von Afroamerikanern nach dem Unabhängigkeitskrieg und dem Krieg von 1812 eine eigene Bevölkerungsgruppe mit afrikanischen Vorfahren lebt. In einer Mischung aus "african" und dem älteren französisch-mi'kmaq Wort für die Gegend, Acadie, nannte Clarke sie "Africadians". (de)
