Alphonse Tardif (1933–2022) was a Canadian abbot, physics teacher and astronomy mentor at the Collège de Lévis, where he inspired students to pursue careers in science. In 1974 he designed and constructed the college's observatory, which now bears his name, to initiate students to astronomy and imaging, assisted by his own clever electronic designs.
