John Bertram (16 October 1837 – 28 November 1904) was a businessman and a Member of Parliament in Canada.

From 1872 to 1878, he represented Peterborough West as a Liberal in the House of Commons.

In 1881, Bertram moved to Toronto and became prominent as president of the Collins Inlet Lumber Company and as president of the Bertram Engine and Shipbuilding Company, a firm he ran with his brother George Hope Bertram (who was also an MP).

Bertram died in Toronto and was buried in Little Lake Cemetery in Peterborough.

While in Peterborough, Bertram had converted from Presbyterianism to Unitarianism, although his wife had not.
