Waste Connections of Canada Inc., formerly Progressive Waste Solutions, is a waste collection company, that provides non-hazardous solid waste collection, recycling, composting, renewable energy, and landfill disposal services to commercial, industrial, municipal, and residential customers throughout the United States and Canada. The company is based in Toronto, and its headquarters in the United States is in The Woodlands, Texas.

In 2016, Progressive Waste Solutions merged with Waste Connections, a New York Stock Exchange-traded company (NYSETSX), becoming the third-largest solid waste management company in North America with a network of operations in 39 U.S. states and five Canadian provinces.

Following the merger, the company was rebranded in Canada as Waste Connections of Canada in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, and Ontario, and as Enviro Connexions in Quebec.
