A comparison of the old traditional way of financing infrastructure and the new "public/private/partnerships" is in order and we'll compare the Financing of the Coquihalla Hwy to the new Port Mann bridge in B.C. The Coquihalla highway was amortized over 20 years then the toll removed; by comparison, the new Port Mann Bridge is amortized over 35 years and that could be subject to change since the toll revenue targets have been falling short. So, why the 15 year difference? Because the Port Mann Bridge is the new so-called public/private/partnership dealing a private corporation into the equation. The taxpayer is going to be paying almost twice as long as compared to the old traditional way.... !!  Hope everyone likes the idea.....!!
