Wilbur MacDonald (born 13 September 1933 in Orwell, Prince Edward Island) was a Progressive Conservative party member of the Canadian House of Commons. He was a farmer by career.

He represented Prince Edward Island's Cardigan electoral district, which he won in the 1979 federal election. After serving his only term, the 31st Canadian Parliament, he was defeated in the 1980 federal election by Daniel J. MacDonald of the Liberal Party. He was subsequently elected to the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island as an MLA for 4th Queens in the 1982 election, and served until 1989.

When the provincial ridings were redistricted in 1996, he became MLA for Belfast-Pownal Bay, which he held until his retirement from politics in 2007.

MacDonald made two further unsuccessful attempts to reenter federal politics, first in a 13 April 1981 by-election and then in the 1993 federal election.
