By bus via Shirakawago. There is one bus per day from Gujo to Shirakawago in the morning:

And 3 buses per day from Shirakawago to Kanazawa:

Alternatively, you could travel via Takayama. There are more connections, but it would be more expensive.

Viv1 - I went from Gujp Hachiman to Takayama - 2 nights - to Kanazawa with a stop - 3 hour - in Shirakawago in April 2010. That itinerary made sense for me as I was going on the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route.
There are many buses that stop in Gujo:

as well as ones from Takayama to Shirakawago and on to Kanazawa:

I read in another post that there is a direct bus that goes from Nagoya right into the Gujo town center and runs twice a day but did not say which one or do all the takayama buses stop right down town Gujo?

None of the Takayama buses go into the town center. The situation is explained here with a map:

The following page shows the bus that operates between Nagoya and the Gujo town center (second column of the first table, first column of the second table):
