Ministry of Public Infrastructure Renewal (Ontario)
- Ministry of Public Infrastructure Renewal (Ontario)
-
The Ministry of Public Infrastructure Renewal was responsible for public infrastructure in the Canadian province of Ontario. It was not only responsible for funding individual capital projects,[1] but for drafting the capital budget in place of the Ministry of Finance. The ministry was previously known under the title of Superbuild and was listed as such under many of its projects.
In July 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 rested on the belief by some that Superbuild and the Ministry of Public Infrastructure Renewal played a pivotal role in establishing private-public partnerships in Ontario.
The Ministry was merged with the Ministry of Energy in June, 2008, at which time the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure was created. The post was split with Bob Chiarelli becoming the Ministry of Infrastructure.
From 2003 to 2007 the Ministry was responsible for the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation, but it is now under the Ministry of Finance (Ontario).
