Morneau thinks Canada has a positive experience with public private partnerships (3Ps) Really? Name some. They cost us more because the private sector must make profit while the public sector does not, we usually stand in for any failure to make a certain profit level, they bail out when the going gets tough but the government can stick it on a future debt schedule so it looks like we are not as far in the hole as we would be if we paid up front. Pretty much like buying your house outright or getting a mortgage...over the years the mortgage sucks out far more money than if you paid up front. Why not allow citizens to invest in the infrastructure bank? If I was paid 6-10% interest on the long term (apparently what investors are expecting) I would much rather put my money into Canada than seeing it off to WallSt/Bay St and being dinged for all kinds of management fees.
