One of Canada's great entrepreneurial success stories Harry Steele was born in Musgrave Harbour, an isolated outport on the eastern coast of Newfoundland. He went to university, joined the naval reserve, and became a lieutenant-commander in the Royal Canadian Navy. Harry quit in 1974 - he didn't like the new green uniforms - and went into business. Using money he made in the stock market and his wife Catherine's real estate investments, Harry bought control of struggling Eastern Provincial Airways.
