Public-private partnerships / Heather Whiteside. by Whiteside, Heather, 1982- Fernwood Publishing, [2016] Call #: 336.71 W594p Subjects Public-private sector cooperation -- Canada.   Public works -- Economic aspects -- Canada. Series About Canada series 13. ISBN:  9781552668962 (pbk.) Alternate title:  About Canada. Public-private partnerships Description:  134 pages : illustrations ; 18 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Contents:  What are P3s -- Where are P3s? -- When are P3s? -- How are P3s? -- Who are P3s? -- Why are P3s? Summary:  "In a public-private partnership, or P3, a private, for-profit corporation assumes control over the design, construction, financing and operation of infrastructure and services that the government used to provide. P3s are increasingly the standard way in which multimillion-dollar projects and services are delivered across Canada. The problem? P3s fundamentally transform public infrastructure, public services, labour relations, public sectors and the everyday lives of Canadians. While they are supposed to save money, P3s often cost more in the long run and are host to poor working conditions and accountability issues. And in the end, it is us, the public, who foots the bill."--Back cover.
