In part two, we go beyond theory and dive deep into a real, high-potential opportunity for UK businesses: the growing demand in Canada for services around environmental spill response, clean up, and the transport & infrastructure sectors.


Our host Ben Braford returns with special guests Mark Ashton (GO International) and Ian Wilks (Bridgelantic Partnerships Group), who explore:

• The scale and urgency of road transport spillage clean-ups across Canada

• Why thousands of historic spill sites remain unresolved, and the commercial need they represent

• The technical and environmental services in demand, from towing and waste remediation to biologist and civil engineers

• How UK companies can enter the market, navigate certification requirements, and form trusted partnerships

• A step-by-step guide on how to get involved; strategically, efficiently, and with on-the-ground support


Whether you’re a business in:

• Environmental services

• Engineering or infrastructure

• Emergency response

• Waste management

• Water or ecological protection

This episode outlines a major opportunity you could be part of.
