    Interesting fact about Lee Valley

    I'm not sure if most of you are aware that the founder of Lee Valley also founded and currently works at another company.
    There was an article in a local magazine here about Leonard Lee awhile back. He is a very interestiong man, having worked in Canadian foreign government offices for many years. He got tired of that and decided to start a business related to what he loved, WW and gardening.

    Anyways, this other venture may take you by surprise.
