Winnipeg, the theme from Guy
Maddin's movie "My Winnipeg".
Leon Naleway is also known in Winnipeg as
the founder of Naleway Foods. The
company was established in 1945 initially
as a restaurant, later expanding into
catering, and is now (as of 2024) the
second largest processor of perogies and
panzerottis in Canada.
Leon's grandson, Rob Naleway, became
involved in the catering side of the
business, establishing the retail outlet
Perogy Planet as a new venture in the
Naleway group.
