His wife Ginnie Grand Wright's family were the founders and former owners of office supply chain Grand & Toy. He was born in Toronto, Ontario.Wright's tenure with the CFL was largely successful, however several members of the board were said to be dissatisfied and wanted him replaced. It was announced on July 5, 2006 that Wright had informed the CFL that he would not be seeking a contract extension as league commissioner, thus ending his tenure as the 11th CFL commissioner. On March 28, 2007, Mark Cohon was officially announced as Wright's successor as league commissioner.In 2009, Wright authored Jim Balsillie's relocation application to move the Phoenix Coyotes NHL team from Phoenix, Arizona to Hamilton, Ontario when the Coyotes went bankrupt.On May 25, 2010, the Ultimate Fighting Championship announced Wright as the Director of Operations for UFC Canada.".
