Comedy Science Fiction movie. Stars Amanda Tapping. Their ship is a garbage collector

I watched it about ten years ago. It was on tv.I suspect it was made a few years after Stargate (also starring Amanda Tapping.) There is a human from another dimension who accidentally changes form in crossing dimensions. First he is an intelligent, talking rubber duck.Later the hollow rubber duck hatches to reveal a tentacled monster. This monster soon grows to be huge and dangerous.

The job of this spaceship is to collect garbage from Earth's orbit, thereby making the chance of dangerous collisions less. They also make some money selling the objects they collect.

The actor playing the captain had a Scottish accent and used some Scottish slang. I remember him calling the tentacled monster a jobbie. I did not recognise the actor, so I don't know if he was actually Scottish.

Can anyone remember the title of the movie please. It made me laugh.
