William Mactavish (29 March 1815 – 23 July 1870) was a Scottish-born Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) clerk, accountant, and chief trader. Mainly known for his dual-position as Governor of Assiniboia, and Governor of Rupert's Land, Mactavish played a major role in the development of Western Canada. Often referred to as, "The Last Governor of Assiniboia," Mactavish is frequently criticized for his role (or lack thereof) in the Red River Rebellion.
