Lee began his career in the telecommunications industry in 1983. Prior to entering the telecommunications business, he honed his management skills within the Bragg Group of Companies, as maintenance manager of the world’s largest wild blueberry processing facility and plant manager at one of six food-processing facilities.
From there, Lee brought his operational experience and empowering leadership style to Eastlink where he successfully managed the transition of 12 independent cable operations to one centralized management and operational structure. Supported by a strong executive team and a staff of more than 1,500 across Canada, Lee has nurtured Eastlink’s growth from a small, regional cable company to the largest, family-owned telecommunications company in the country.
Lee, and the entire Bragg family, play a significant role in supporting charitable and non-profit organizations and activities, enriching the communities where they operate and helping to make a positive difference in the quality of life where their employees and customers live, work, and play.
He sits on the Board of Directors for Nova Scotia Power and is an Advisory Board Member for the Faculty of Management for Dalhousie University.
Lee is a sports enthusiast and proud alumnus of Mount Allison University and the University of New Brunswick. Father of three boys and four grandchildren, he lives in Fall River, Nova Scotia, with his wife Amy.
