Presentation in the Transport Canada (TC) Webinar Series on Marine Pollution

On October 30, we will make a presentation titled “When Oil Spills Happen: Understanding the Layers of Compensation Available.” This presentation is part of the TC Webinar Series on Marine Pollution for federal employees.

We will explore the various layers of compensation, including those from international sources. Different scenarios will be examined—whether the incident involves oil tankers or non-tankers, and whether the vessels are insured or uninsured.
