About Us

The Canadian Council for Public-Private Partnerships was established in 1993 as a member-sponsored organization with representatives from both the public and the private sectors. As proponents of the concept of public-private partnerships (PPP's), The Council conducts research, publishes findings, facilitates forums for discussion and sponsors an Annual Conference on topics related to PPP's, both domestic and international. Each year the Council celebrates successful public-private partnerships through the National Awards Program held concurrently with the annual conference in November.

The Council offers influential speakers to provide information on the value of public-private partnerships and to share best practices in a wide variety of sectors. As a national, authoritative voice on the topic of public-private partnerships, The Council provides support to political officials and decision-makers in investigating and developing partnerships with the private sector. Alternatively, The Council strives to create opportunities for the private sector to work with government on P3 projects that cover the spectrum, from simple contracts to full privatizations.

The Council's activities are overseen by a board of directors made up of senior representatives from business, government and labour across Canada. Our current president, Dale Richmond, had a distinguished career in municipal government and recently with the Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement System (OMERS). He is now President and CEO of DERX Inc.
