Well that's interesting!
It started off well for Landry, but that might have been beginner's luck. Elected for the Bloc Québécois in Lotbinière in 1993, he ran 11 times after that under different banners and lost each time. His last attempt was in the 2021 federal election, when he came in fifth in a field of seven candidates in Trois-Rivières, running for the second time for the People's Party of Canada. Thus his lacklustre political career makes him, according to PoliCan, a one-hit wonder.
