My daughter is a Permanent Resident of Canada. She is travelling from Moscow to Toronto, and with a return journey from Toronto to Moscow via Amsterdam (KLM flight) and will have a 6 hours layover at Amsterdam on the return journey, and on-board time 1:30hrs time to board for the Toronto flight.

Will she require a transit visa in Amsterdam?

No, she won't need a transit visa. According to the Dutch embassy in Moscow (emphasis mine):

Airport transit visa

Whether you need a Schengen airport transit visa depends on your nationality.

You do not need Schengen airport transit visa if you:

Hold a valid visa or a valid residence permit issued by a Schengen country.
Hold a valid visa for a Member State of the European Union or the European Economic Area, Canada, Japan or the United States.
Have a valid residence permit issued by a Member State of the European Union or the European Economic Area.
Have a residence permit issued by the Principality of Andorra, Canada, Japan, San Marino or the United States guaranteeing an unlimited right of return.
