March 1, 2023 – The Canadian Marine Shipping Risk Forum hosted a webinar on Marine Liability and Compensation: Who Pays for an Oil Spill in Canada and Beyond? to share work, ideas, concerns, questions and issues about the work of the Ship-source Oil Pollution Fund.
We welcomed dozens of participants from governments, academia, Indigenous groups, and non-governmental organizations, in Canada and beyond, who share an interest in how the Fund has been mandated to compensate victims of oil pollution damage (including costs incurred for preventive measures) caused by ships and how the Fund recovers the costs from the polluters or other responsible parties.
