J.-Armand Ménard (12 July 1905 – 7 October 1973) was a Liberal party member of the House of Commons of Canada. Born in Saint-Alexandre-d'Iberville, Quebec, he was an industrialist by career.

On 23 February 1953 Ménard was elected mayor of Saint-Jean, Quebec (St. Johns). He had already served as an alderman for the municipal council.[3] He remained mayor until 1957.

Ménard entered federal politics when he won a by-election at the Saint-Jean—Iberville—Napierville on 19 December 1955. He was re-elected in the 1957 federal election and completed his only full federal term, the 23rd Canadian Parliament after which he did not seek re-election in the 1958 election.
