Jean Landry (Canadian politician)
- Jean Landry (Canadian politician)
Jean Landry (born 3 October 1948 in Saint-Valère, Quebec) was a member of the Canadian House of Commons from 1993 to 1997. His career has included photography and food preparation.
He was elected in the Lotbinière electoral district under the Bloc Québécois party in the 1993 federal election, thus he served in the 35th Canadian Parliament.
He left the party and ran as an independent candidate in the 1997 federal election. He lost the riding and left Canadian politics afterwards.
He joined the federalist Progressive Conservative party for the 2000 federal election and unsuccessfully campaigned for a Parliamentary seat in the Lotbinière—L'Érable riding. After electoral districts were restructured, Landry made another unsuccessful bid for Parliament in the 2004 federal election at the Lotbinière—Chutes-de-la-Chaudière riding, after his party became the Conservative party. He campaigned for the Conservatives again in the Richmond—Arthabaska riding in the 2006 general election.
