Ministry of Public Infrastructure Renewal (Ontario)
Encyclopedia : M : MI : MIN : Ministry of Public Infrastructure Renewal (Ontario)
The Ministry of Public Infrastructure Renewal is responsible for public infrastructure in the Canadian province of Ontario. It is not only responsible for funding individual capital projects, but for drafting the capital budget in place of the Ministry of Finance. The ministry was previously known under the title of Superbuild and continues to be listed as such under many of its projects.
In July of 2005, the ministry was granted control over the LCBO and other provincial crown corporations. It was speculated that such a move indicated the upcoming privatization of the LCBO, but no such event has occurred. The basis for such an assumption rests on the belief by some that Superbuild and the Ministry of Public Infrastructure Renewal have played a pivotal role in establishing the greatly unpopular private-public partnerships in Ontario.
The current Minister of Public Infrastructure Renewal is the Honourable David Caplan.
