The waste management industry can play a critical role to manage residual and left over produce from industries and society through advanced technologies and eco-friendly products. The Canadian government has been supporting such green ventures via funding and subsidies to push its target of zero-emission by 2050.
Once industries reopen post vaccination drive, firms will once again generate tons of waste, which could boost the demand for wide-ranging waste management facilities.
Here are two waste management stocks that have already created a buzz in the Canadian stock market:
