William Amos MP (born December 4, 1974) is a Canadian politician who has served as the Member of Parliament for the riding of Pontiac since 2015. He is a member of the Liberal Party of Canada.

Amos attended McMaster University, earning a Bachelor of Arts and Science and a Master of Arts degree from the University of British Columbia. Amos worked in the Prime Minister's Office under Jean Chrétien.

Amos earned his law degree from McGill University's civil/common law program in 2004. Amos was called to the bar in both Ontario and Quebec, worked for a large Montreal law firm, and advised former Environment Minister David Anderson on issues related to species at risk.

By 2007, Amos was a lawyer for Ecojustice Canada, an environmental law charity which had partnered with the University of Ottawa Faculty of Law to create the uOttawa-Ecojustice Environmental Law Clinic, which provided legal advice to individuals and community groups involved in environmental law cases. During his time at the environmental law clinic, Amos collaborated as an author on four books, three of which were about the mining industry in Quebec, and one on holding the Canadian government accountable for environmental enforcement. Amos was a part-time professor and staff lawyer at the University of Ottawa before being promoted to director of the uOttawa-Ecojustice Environmental Law Clinic in August 2010.

At the time of his election, Amos was teaching law at the University of Ottawa as the Director of the uOttawa-Ecojustice Environmental Law Clinic.

In October 2014, Amos won the Liberal nomination to run in Pontiac for the 2015 federal election by large majority.

In the lead up to and during the 2015 federal election several people, including a director of the Pontiac Liberal riding association, accused Amos of offering “favours” or making threats in exchange for their support, prompting complaints to Elections Canada.During the 2015 campaign, it was also reported that Mr. Amos had refused to endorse the Liberal Party of Canada’s policy on the protection of Gatineau Park because he needed support from the Meech Lake Residents’ Association to secure his party’s nomination.

On October 12, 2015, a week before the election, the New Democratic Party (NDP) filed a complaint with Elections Canada claiming that on September 11, Amos had lied to a staffer from Nycole Turmel's constituency office by saying that her boss, the incumbent NDP MP for nearby Hull—Aylmer, was terminally ill. Amos dismissed these claims as "totally and absolutely false."

Amos won Pontiac in the election, unseating incumbent NDP MP Mathieu Ravignat.

Amos was re-elected in the 2019 election.

Amos currently resides in Chelsea with his wife and two children. He is fluently bilingual.
