A container, and more specifically a medical suction container, that comprises a canister, a lid and a liner that together form an air tight seal. Opposed wedge-shaped camming blocks mounted on the lid and the canister force the lid and liner into a sealing mating relationship thereby forming the seal. The canister and liner have similar sealing assemblies that consist of upwardly extending portions that form aligned notches. The lid with a sealing protrusion is mated with a notch of the liner, which in turn forces the liner into the notch of the canister. A locking lip on the liner engages a lip on the sealing protrusion thereby locking the lid to the liner.
