Thank you.

In 2011 Berlin residents and citizen groups had to push for a referendum to publicize the contract for its privatized water services before ending up taking it back into public hands.

P3s were a poor model before the pandemic. Now that we have the opportunity to build back better, P3s should play no role in Canada's post-COVID recovery plan. Canadians need a just recovery plan that puts communities ahead of corporate profits.

Thank you.
