In our first episode, David Werklund is Talking Business With A Teenager. Dave was the founder of Canadian Crude Separators, a Canadian environmental services business that grew from a start-up to Canada's largest leveraged buyout when it was taken private from the Toronto Stock Exchange in 2008 with an enterprise value of $3.5-billion. He is a legendary entrepreneur, philanthropist and community builder who's deeply committed to Alberta and Canada. Growing up on a farm fostered a solid work ethic in Dave and promoted a strong foundation of core values which also nurtured an appreciation for protecting the environment.
