The Scottish rink made it a 6-4 game with two points in the eighth end.
However, Gushue was able to reply with two of his own in the ninth before Mouat conceded the game.
The game was a rematch of the 2023 gold-medal final. Sunday’s victory allows Canada to be ahead of Scotland in any head-to-head tiebreakers.
Canada now sits atop the standings, with Sweden also at 3-0, and next plays Italy on Monday.
