The push to optimize, not maximize, private financing will continue, especially in Ontario. Private financing is more expensive than public, so if governments can replace private borrowing with public money after the high-risk construction stage, the government will save money. Ontario is aiming to get 60% of the private money out of  social PPPs, and 85% out of transportation projects.
