Jaclyn Michelle Linetsky (January 8, 1986 – September 8, 2003) was a Montreal-based Canadian actress and voiceover artist.

She began her career in 1994 at the age of 8 and went on to appear in many stage productions, TV shows, and cartoons produced in Canada. However, she became most famous for playing Megan O'Connor on ''Series/FifteenLove'' and succeeding Toronto-based child actress Creator/BrynMcAuley as the voice of ''WesternAnimation/Caillou'' beginning in the second season.

Tragically, she was killed in a horrific car accident on September 8, 2003 alongside fellow 15/Love co-star Vadim Schneider (who played her character’s love interest, Sebastien Dubé). The two had been on their way to the set of ''15/Love'' in St. Cesaire, Quebec, at the time and were both only 17 years old.

Filming for ''15/Love'' was cancelled for two weeks by the producers to allow for some time to grieve for the young actors’ untimely deaths, and the writers decided to write Linetsky's and Schneider's characters out of the show by killing them off in a plane crash. Additionally, Annie Boivard succeeded her as the third and final voice actress for Caillou.

The ''WesternAnimation/{{Caillou}}'' film ''Caillou's Holiday Movie'' and the ''Series/FifteenLove'' episode "Curveballs" (along with the SeriesFinale) were dedicated to her memory. As was the season two episode of ''WesternAnimation/WhatsWithAndy'' "Nurse Jen", since she voiced Andy’s love interest Lori Mackney on the show during the second season.
