Charles William Sutter (November 19, 1856 – August 23, 1922) was a politician in Alberta, Canada and a municipal councillor in Edmonton.

Sutter worked on the family's farm for three years, and then was apprenticed as a tailor in Toronto for another four.

In 1879, Sutter set out by foot for Edmonton with James Ross, one horse, and a Red River ox cart, arriving 76 days later.

He became a partner in John Sinclair & Co. in the dry goods and grocery business until it dissolved in 1885.

In 1896 he was appointed immigration agent, a position he filled in Edmonton for 12 years before being transferred to the United States where he remained until just before his death.
