• Alternative financing and procurement strategies will be pursued. These strategies will allow us to take advantage of private-sector capital, expertise and efficiencies to do far more in the next few years than we have done in the past, and to do it on time and on budget.
• New sources of financing will be accessed through Infrastructure Renewal Bonds, and from partnerships with financial institutions and pension funds.
• A new management framework has been introduced for larger, complex projects. These projects will require a fully developed business case to demonstrate the public need and the public benefit before they proceed, as well as appropriate transfer of risk and use of private-sector expertise. All major projects will have to meet these requirements.
• A new agency, the Ontario Infrastructure Projects Corporation, will ensure that we deliver large-scale alternative finance and procurement projects successfully.
