You have a non-Schengen to non Schengen connection -> you will arrive airside at the place where you will leave without a need to clear security nor immigration. So in short, there is not any queue to battle. The only potential disruption you would face if the YYZ-AMS flight is over 4 hours late which seems beyond any realistic scenario. In short - you are safe.
