John B Mather (c. 1845 – 31 January 1892) was the son of Scottish immigrants and became a Canadian businessman and politician. Mather was born in Islington, Canada West. Mather's early introduction to business was as an employee of Frank Smith, a leading grocer in Toronto. He moved to Winnipeg, Manitoba in 1881 and established himself as a leading Winnipeg wholesaler. It was a time where the business emphasis in the West was switching from the Hudson's Bay Company and the St Paul, Minnesota merchants to products and businesses from eastern Canada.
