Lucien Dubois (30 April 1893 – 8 November 1948) was a Liberal party and Independent Liberal member of the House of Commons of Canada. He was born in Gentilly, Quebec and became a farmer by career.

Dubois was educated at Arthabaska College.[1] He was also author of a history of Gentilly.[2]

He was first elected to Parliament at the Nicolet riding in the 1930 general election. He was re-elected in 1935 when his riding was changed to Nicolet—Yamaska. He was re-elected there in 1940 and 1945.
