Peter James "Jim" Maloway (born November 10, 1952) is a Canadian politician, who has served as a member of both the Canadian House of Commons and the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba.
He originally served in the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1986 to 2008, representing Elmwood for the New Democratic Party of Manitoba. He was then elected to the Canadian House of Commons for the Winnipeg division of Elmwood—Transcona in the 2008 federal election as a member of the New Democratic Party, but was defeated by Conservative candidate Lawrence Toet in the 2011 federal election. He subsequently ran in the 2011 provincial election in his former provincial riding of Elmwood, winning re-election to the provincial legislature.
Maloway was born in Sioux Lookout, Ontario, and holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science from the University of Manitoba (1975). He later worked for the Manitoba Liquor Control Commission as a liquor inspector, and was executive assistant to the Minister of Colleges and Universities and Tourism. He has owned the Maloway & Eliason Insurance & Travel Centre since 1978, operating it for many years with the late Magnus Eliason.
