Abstract—Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) have become an increasingly important tool in the development of infrastructure and public services as global economies and urbanization continue to evolve. The integration of private capital into the development of infrastructure and public services through PPPs has emerged as a strategy to alleviate governmental financial burdens while ensuring an effective supply of public services to the public. This paper provides an in-depth examination of the PPP model, exploring its various classifications and practical applications. Through comparative case studies of PPP implementation in Canada and China, the paper analyses the reasons behind the widespread adoption of PPPs by governments with differing political persuasions. It also addresses the benefits and inherent risks of PPPs, offering insights into their growing popularity and impact on global market dynamics.
Keywords—Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs), government, Canada, China, political persuasions
