(Vancouver) A panel of experts from Britain, the U.S. and Canada on "public-private partnerships" (P3's) say that British Columbia should think twice before adopting the P3 model. Three of the four panelists, who were brought to Vancouver to speak at a public forum organized by the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives, appeared at a news conference this morning. All three have done extensive research on P3's and warn that the model is flawed.
The CCPA’s bold vision and creative solutions help us imagine better futures for all. Its efforts to build bridges between labour, industry, and civil society and mentor young activists lay the foundation for realizing those provocative futures. I consider my support for the CCPA an investment in a better future for British Columbia.
