William John Loucks (26 June 1873 – 2 September 1968) was a Conservative member of the House of Commons of Canada. He was born in Battersea, Ontario and became a farmer. Loucks attended schools at Battersea and Kingston. For 15 years, he served as president of the Delisle Telephone Company.[1] He was elected to Parliament at the Rosetown riding in the 1930 general election. After serving a term in the 17th Canadian Parliament, Loucks was defeated by Major James Coldwell of the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation in the 1935 federal election, after riding boundaries were changed to replace the Rosetown riding with the new Rosetown—Biggar electoral district.
