Patrick Anthony Sobeski (born 25 July 1951 in Woodstock, Ontario) is a Canadian politician, who has served as a member of the House of Commons of Canada from 1988 to 1993, and as mayor of Woodstock since 2010.

He was elected in the 1988 federal election at the Cambridge electoral district for the Progressive Conservative party. He served in the 34th Canadian Parliament but lost to Janko Peric of the Liberal Party in the 1993 federal election, finishing with less than half of Peric's votes, and even behind the Reform party's Reg Petersen.[1]

Sobeski served as a municipal councillor in Woodstock, Ontario since 2003. He was elected as the mayor of Woodstock, Ontario in the 2010 municipal election, defeating incumbent Michael Harding.[2][3]
