William Thomas Gunn (15 January 1867 – 30 September 1930) was a Christian minister of the Congregational Union of Canada who urged the amalgamation of Christian denominations across Canada and subsequently became the third Moderator of the newly formed United Church of Canada. Much of Gunn's work as Moderator dealt with various points of friction between the founding factions. That work exacerbated his chronically poor health, and he died less than two weeks after the end of his term.
