Chantal Renaud (born 26 August 1946) is a Québécoise script writer, and a past yé-yé singer and actress. She is the wife of former Quebec Premier and former Parti Québécois leader Bernard Landry.
Renaud began her career as a yé-yé singer, with a hit called Comme un garçon, originally performed by Sylvie Vartan, in France. After acting in the sitcom Moi et l'autre and films such as L'Initiation and Finalement..., Renaud relocated to France, where she built a respectable career as an award-winning script writer.
On June 26, 2004, after a courtship of some years, she married former Premier of Quebec and then Parti Québécois leader Bernard Landry. She figures prominently in the 2003 documentary À Hauteur d'homme about the 2003 Quebec general election, during which Landry defended his post as leader of Quebec.
