David writes to Canada's Minister of Finance on "Canada's Infrastructure Bank Done Right" in an intelligence memo that appears on the C.D. Howe Institute's website. David says that political courage is needed to explain to Canadians why it is in their interest to pay for the use of public use infrastructure, at least in part, through user charges. On November 1, 2016, the Minister announced the federal government will establish the Canadian Infrastructure Bank to attract private investment in revenue-generating projects.
