==================================================================
Joseph,
Last week, we asked the Liberals to reconsider their plan to give private corporate investors a major role in funding and building the bridges, roads, and transit systems that keep our communities running smoothly.
Here’s why: corporations have one goal – $$. When we put our tax dollars into building new infrastructure, we expect the government to put the needs of Canadian communities first. But with private investors and multi-national corporations calling the shots, how can we be sure Canadians will get the best deal?
Handing over more control to corporations is a reckless move – that’s why we’re putting pressure on the Liberals to do the right thing and put everyday Canadians before their friends on Bay Street.
Rich investors stand to make a lot of money from this privatization scheme, and that cash will come right from your pocket.
User fees, including highway and bridge tolls and increasing airport fees, will make corporate CEOs wealthy – and make our commutes a lot more expensive. It’s pretty clear that Canadians are getting the short end of the stick here. Struggling families and workers across Canada already pay their fair share and shouldn’t be asked to fill billionaires’ pockets just to use the roads and bridges in their communities.
Let’s make it clear that we don’t want private interests to control our public infrastructure – add your name today, Joseph:
Thanks,
Dave
