William Forrester (16 March 1855 – 23 October 1926) was a Liberal party and Laurier Liberals member of the Canadian House of Commons. He was born in St. Marys, Canada West and became a farmer and manufacturer.

He was first elected to Parliament at the Perth South riding in the 1921 general election after an unsuccessful campaign there in the 1917 election as a Laurier Liberal. After serving his only federal term, the 14th Canadian Parliament, Forrester left the House of Commons and did not seek another term in the 1925 election.
