Leonardo World is a now defunct Canadian category 2 Italian language digital cable specialty channel. It was an all-lifestyle channel showcase of Italian arts and culture ranging from cuisine to travel. It was a Canadian version of the Italian channel Leonardo World. It was primarily distributed through a package with two other channels called Super Trio Italiano. The other channels were SKY TG24 and Video Italia. All three channels were wholly owned by Telelatino Network Inc. with the exception of Video Italia Canada which was 80% owned by Telelatino Network Inc. and 20% owned by Radio Italia.
