‘One of a kind’: CEO, philanthropist Doug Harvey dies at 72

Morgan Modjeski 5 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 12:57 PM CDT

Doug Harvey, a Winnipeg business titan and philanthropist, has died after battling cancer for more than a decade.

Harvey gave millions of dollars to Winnipeg organizations while he was CEO of DLH Group, a nationwide network of businesses that support heavy duty truck and trailer users.

Loren Remillard, CEO and president of the Winnipeg Chamber of Commerce, said the business community is mourning the loss of the influential businessman who helped shape Winnipeg.

“We are a transportation and logistics hub in Winnipeg and it was partly the result of geography, and a big part because of leaders and visionaries like Doug Harvey,” he said.

“Obviously the news is heartbreaking,” Jets forward Kyle Connor said Thursday.
